Industry 4.0 is the name given for the ongoing revolution and innovation in the automation of industry, using smart technologies. Industry 4.0 concepts can be grouped into four key areas:
Implementing Industry 4.0 ideologies can have many benefits for industry, including:
The aim of our program is to help students prepare for a career in a range of industries where Industry 4.0 skills are commonly used and increasingly required.
As part of our STEM career pathways program, Industry 4.0 is designed to provide middle and high school students (grades 7-10) with an introduction to Industry 4.0 concepts and applications across a range of industry sectors.
The Industry 4.0 program is designed to give students a foundation in how Industry 4.0 and STEM concepts are applied in career pathways and then develop their knowledge and skills in specific industry sectors:
The Industry 4.0 Lab will provide the opportunity for students to explore concepts such as sensors and control, data analytics, and the efficient utilization of resources. The program is designed to provide students with the skills and expertise they need to succeed in high school, college, industrial skills programs, and industry certification courses.

A large part of the Industry 4.0 Career Pathways operation Program is project-based. Students work on projects as part of a multidisciplinary team to produce solutions to real-world problems.
The project-based nature of the program gives students the opportunity to learn, develop and apply academic skills and knowledge while they develop “21st Century Skills” such as critical
thinking and problem solving, communication, collaboration, and creativity.
Each course provides instruction for advanced CTE certification courses, and career readiness - covering pathways such as:
The Industry 4.0 Career Pathways Program includes 8 project-based courses. An outline of each course is included in the Program Guide, containing:
Each course contains:

LJ Create's CTE program offers a diverse range of industry-focused disciplines wth resources that relate to the Energy Sector, Manufacturing, and Electronics our program helps students connect their learning to real-world applications.
LJ Create's engineering program comprises three main strands of Control and Instrumentation, Mechanical Engineering, and Electronic Engineering. Our comprehensive program addresses a broad range of related engineering areas.
Design & Technology is a flexible project-based program that explores STEM themes such as agriculture, biotechnology, and transportation, with a focus firmly on technology and engineering.
Our learning programs develop job-ready skills that have been proven time and again. Take a look at how we can help you be successful!Colleges are challenged to offer courses whenever students are available – and frequently, wherever they are available. Students want courses that are available on campus as well as from home while also providing strong hands-on skills for the technology demands facing them. Meeting these demands is no small task.
Amatrol has learning programs that allow colleges to excel in this demanding environment. We offer a full range of learning systems, both in a traditional equipment lab setting as well as in a virtual lab, that meet and exceed students' expectations.
By 2018, the U.S. will have more than 1.2 million unfilled jobs in the areas of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) because there will not be enough qualified workers to fill them. STEM is where jobs are today and where the job growth will be in the future.
Through activity-, project-, and problem-based curriculum, our programs give students a chance to apply what they know, identify problems, find unique solutions, and lead their own learning. When students understand how their education is relevant to their lives and future careers, they get excited, and are more successful.
