    Hi,
    Im currently planning on returning to work in the automation sector. I previously worked in the area and have a mechatronics degree and am also an electrician. Before returning to work in the area I have been considering doing come courses etc to get me up to speed and make me more employable in the area as I only have approx. 1 years experience. I was thinking of learning a programming language and brushing up on my PLC skills. could anyone suggest the best language/s to learn that are of most use in industry (was thinking about C++ or VB) I know allen bradley and Seimens are the main PLCS used in industry so was considering training in one of those. Does anyone have any suggestions or is there anywhere I could go to seek advice on this.
