Hello Unclehamid;
Have you looked at ISA certification?
http://www.isa.org/Template.cfm?Section=Control_Systems_Engineer_License&Template=/Content/ContentGroups/Navigation_Multi-Use_Content/CSE_Registration.htm
They offer many levels of certification, from CAP (Control Automation Professional) to CSE (Control Systems Engineer). The certfications cover more than ability with PLCs, but it is part of the curriculum.
Hope this helps,
Daniel Chartier

... and the 'A' in ISA stands for what exactly?
This in response to a question where UncleHamid has explained his Iranian location puts him under a US sanction. My guess is that US certificates won't make any difference to his problem, even if, regardless of SurferB's view, the US population themselves were to take them seriously.

Association? Automation? I'm not sure...I couldn't find the acronym on isa.org, google, or wikipedia. They consider themselves to be international.
I had always guessed that it stood for Industrial Standards Association.
Maybe International Standards for Automation...

As far as I'm aware, there is no one particular piece of paper that you can wave in the air that will say that you are a PLC / Controls engineer - unless you have a resume that shows that you've been doing this for the last 30 or so years
.Having said that, all of the major PLC manufacturers offer training on their systems.
On completion of a course, you will usually obtain a certificate which will show people that you can use a certain brand of PLC.
What this will not demonstrate however, is your ability to use that PLC in a real-world situation.
Can you clarify...
Are you already a Controls / PLC engineer looking for certification?
Do you want to become a controls / PLC engineer?
What would you want an international 'certificate' for?
Are you looking to study controls engineering?
What would you do if you had a certificate?

When I joined a couple of decades ago ISA was The Instrument Society of America. But things change seven years ago:
"Recognizing ISA’s international reach and the fact that its technical scope had grown beyond instruments, in the fall of 2000, the ISA Council of Society Delegates approved a legal name change to ISA--The Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Society. Today, ISA's corporate branding strategy focuses exclusively on the highly recognizable letters, though ISA's official, legal name remains the same." (from the ISA web site)
I think 'Paulus' is on point.
It really depends on where you are going to be doing your work. Or how "snowed" your employer can be with certificates. Not all HR types understand the difference between a piece of paper and work experience.
lol - you were correct. I asked my co-worker and he explained the same thing. ISA: Used to stand for Instrumentation Society of America, now it stands for something like Instrumentation, Standards, and Automation.
Their web site seems to deliberately omit it.

D*mn you, ISA!

Hello guys;
I was reading Jim Pinto's last posting (http://www.jimpinto.com/enews/sep25-2007.html#3)
and thought this might add a new light on the subject of ISA:

P.S. Hope you enjoy his Wireless Quadrille poem as much as I did!
