Arduino Masterclass gives you hands-on skills to design and build electronic and robotics projects with Arduino, the popular open-source microcontroller platform. Arduino makes it easy to read sensors, control motors and lights, and create interactive devices, which is why it is used by engineers, educators and makers worldwide. This masterclass is designed for beginners, engineering and technical staff, teachers and hobbyists who want to learn embedded systems and electronics through practical projects.

You will begin with an introduction to embedded systems, learning how microcontrollers work, setting up the Arduino IDE and writing your first programs. Next you will cover basic electronics, including voltage, current and resistance, using breadboards, reading circuit diagrams and safely connecting LEDs, buttons and resistors. You will then work with analogue sensors and transducers, such as light, temperature and potentiometer inputs, reading their values and converting them into meaningful measurements.

The course continues with digital sensors and transducers, including ultrasonic distance sensors, infrared sensors and digital temperature and humidity modules, followed by actuators, where you will control DC motors, servo motors, buzzers and relays. You will combine these skills to build simple robotics applications such as obstacle detection and line following. Every topic is hands-on with real components. By the end of the masterclass, you will be able to design, program and build your own Arduino-based projects.

Hands-On Learning Learn by doing. Every topic is practised hands-on, so you leave with skills you can use at work straight away.

Trainers

Mr Tan Woei Ming is an electrical and electronic engineer by training and the trainer for Tertiary Courses' Arduino, IoT and ROS courses. He graduated with First-Class Honours in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from NTU and went on to a Master of Intelligent Systems at NUS, which deepened his understanding of how sensing, control and intelligence come together in machines such as robots. In industry he worked at Micron Technology, first as a Data Scientist and then as Data Science Lead, leading AI initiatives in predictive analytics, automation and process optimisation in the semiconductor and manufacturing industries. At Tertiary Infotech he is an Instructor, Software Developer and Agentic Automation specialist, and he is an ACLP-certified trainer whose classes centre on building working hardware rather than on theory alone.

Arduino Masterclass gives beginners, engineering and technical learners, and makers the skills to design and build electronic and robotics projects. Mr Tan starts with embedded systems and the Arduino platform, then covers the basic electronics every builder needs before moving on to analog sensors and transducers, digital sensors and transducers, and finally the actuators, such as motors, that allow a project to move and interact with the world. Each topic builds on the last, so by the end learners can combine sensing and actuation into the kind of behaviour found in simple robots and interactive devices. Mr Tan's grounding in electronics means he can explain why a circuit behaves as it does, and his software development experience helps learners structure their Arduino code so it stays readable as projects grow. Sessions are highly practical, with learners wiring, programming and testing hardware throughout the class. Learners leave with completed projects and the know-how to start their own.

Ken Yuen is an ACTA-certified adult educator specialising in STEM education, IoT systems, electronics and programming. He has conducted WSQ and SkillsFuture courses in Arduino, Raspberry Pi, micro:bit, Jetson Nano and Python, and as an MOE-registered instructor he has taught coding and robotics programmes in over 50 schools. As a Technical Consultant at Anson Engineering he developed IoT-based SCADA and temperature monitoring systems for industrial applications. He holds a Diploma in Electronic Engineering from Singapore Polytechnic and a Bachelor of Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Nanyang Technological University.

In Arduino Masterclass, Ken brings both his electronics engineering training and his robotics teaching to learners who want to build real projects. His sessions centre on hands-on experimentation with microcontrollers, sensors and actuators, moving from an introduction to embedded systems and basic electronics through analog and digital sensors and transducers to driving motors, lights and other actuators. Learners wire, code and test their own circuits at every stage. Blending educational expertise with technical project experience, Ken helps participants develop the confidence to design, troubleshoot and build electronic and robotics projects of their own.

Ferris Kwok is a trainer who specialises in designing and building electronic prototypes. He conducts experiential workshops for the public and in schools on electronics, coding, Arduino and microcontroller prototyping, robotics and multi-rotor aircraft (drones). A practitioner who practises what he teaches, he links the concepts he covers to systems he has designed and built for commercial clients and installed in places such as Singapore Airport and Science Centre Singapore. He is also a long-standing advocate of Maker Faire, having supported the local edition organised by Science Centre Singapore with a Maker booth throughout all eight editions, and has exhibited at Maker Faire Bay Area and Maker Faire Shenzhen.

In Arduino Masterclass, Ferris draws on this prototyping experience to help beginners, technical staff, teachers and hobbyists learn embedded systems through practical projects. Learners begin with an introduction to embedded systems and how microcontrollers work, then build a foundation in basic electronics. They go on to read analog and digital sensors and transducers and to control actuators such as motors and lights, building interactive devices along the way. Because his examples come from systems he has built for clients, participants see how each concept applies in real projects, and leave with the hands-on skills to design and build their own electronic and robotics projects with Arduino.

Richard Wan is a technologist and trainer specialising in embedded system programming, including microcontrollers, Arduino, Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone, with wider expertise in AI, machine learning and computer vision. An ACLP-certified lecturer and ACTA certified trainer, he has decades of software and hardware development experience, working with C, C++, Delphi and Visual Studio on Windows and Linux. He began programming on 8-bit computers in the late 1970s, holds an M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering (Computer Vision) from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and has co-founded multiple high-tech companies.

In the Arduino Masterclass, Richard draws on this embedded and hardware background to give learners hands-on skills for electronic and robotics projects. Participants are introduced to embedded systems and basic electronics, then work with analog sensors and transducers, digital sensors and transducers, and actuators such as motors and lights. Each topic builds towards reading sensors, controlling outputs and creating interactive devices. His structured, beginner-friendly instruction makes circuit design and microcontroller programming approachable, so learners leave able to design, build and troubleshoot their own Arduino projects.

Shahul Maricar is a certified trainer and developer whose hands-on background is in programming, automation and computer graphics. As an IT analyst in the healthcare field, he wrote programs to automate custom workflows and to handle data extraction and analysis. He has also worked as a content developer and webmaster, building educational websites and applications with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. He is currently a freelance educator and is actively involved in development projects in game programming, computer-aided design and computer graphics.

In Arduino Masterclass, Shahul applies his programming and problem-solving experience to help learners write the code that brings Arduino projects to life. The course introduces embedded systems and basic electronics, then works through analog and digital sensors and transducers before moving on to actuators such as motors and lights. His experience of writing programs that automate real workflows helps participants think logically about inputs, outputs and control flow, and structure their sketches so they are easy to test and extend. Learners leave able to read sensors, drive actuators and build interactive electronic and robotics projects with Arduino, with a solid foundation for more ambitious builds.
