What's This Course About

Embark on a transformative journey into the world of Arduino with the Arduino Essential Training at Tertiary Courses. Designed to provide a robust understanding of Arduino, this course commences by addressing the fundamental question: What is Arduino? From there, participants are introduced to rudimentary electronics concepts, components, and the intricacies of the Arduino IDE. The curriculum seamlessly integrates both theoretical and hands-on sessions, offering trainees a comprehensive grasp of digital and analog inputs/outputs, as well as the dynamics of pulse-width modulation.

Yet, the course doesn't halt at basic functionalities. Delve deeper and uncover the realms of serial communication and the innovative block programming offered by Snap4Arduino. But the pinnacle of the course resides in its project-based modules, where attendees get to build both light and obstacle detection systems from scratch. This not only reinforces learned concepts but also provides a pragmatic perspective on how Arduino can be employed to solve real-world challenges. Whether you're an absolute beginner or someone looking to polish their Arduino skills, this course is structured to cater to all proficiency levels, ensuring every attendee emerges as a proficient Arduino enthusiast.

Note that the Arduino kit is used for the training. The course fee does not include the kit.

Will b good if can break into weekday night classes, as I need to take leave to attend

Very fruitful class, trainer shared v good knowledge on Arduino. As an absolute beginner, I could keep up and learn a lot frm just a 1 day course. And trainer focus on teaching us how to fish, which is v beneficial for me to follow up learning after this basic class. (Posted on 11/14/2023)
