Let's START and innovate together!
Teaching Industrial Automation to the Next Generation of Engineers
Many educational institutions have a hard time keeping track of state-of-the-art innovative industrial manufacturing solutions; although it is essential for students to successfully find their professional way after earning their degree. To help technical schools and universities bridge that gap OMRON initiated its cutting edge START-program.
START is a complete academic platform that offers a quick and easy eLearning environment for students and teachers. Combined with OMRON’s latest i-Automation! technology the future of manufacturing can be brought right into the classroom to benefit the automation experts of tomorrow. Learn online and gather experience in the class room with advanced motion, vision, sensors, safety and robotics.
The best thing about START is that it is surprisingly easy to start with and it can be tailored to fit the specific needs of any technical education.

Quick, Simple & Safe eLearning environment
What is eLearning
We know how busy teachers are, so we want to assist by creating ready-to-go training materials and exercises for all our START-modules: Motion, Vision, Sensors, Safety and Robotics. You have access to all the available exercises and training materials, for a small fee, from our website under the “eLearning”-section. We update exercises regularly to keep them aligned with the latest industry developments for the benefit of the students.
Teachers are able to view the progress of students in our eLearning environment. Please contact your local sales office for more information.
You can explore our extensive training portfolio on our webpage, login to eLearning or gain access to the course materials you used during one of our many classroom based training courses, from a single login. All our training products are categorised by product groups and by our core machine automation platform Sysmac.
Through the individual course pages, you can sign into our scheduled programs, or request a customised course to be delivered on-site, or in one of our regional Training Centres.
