--- title: EPLAN Preplanning training description: EPLAN Preplanning enables you to record engineering data as early in the process. This includes actuators and sensors of a system, machine or building. --- ![eplan logo](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/hubfs/_Corporate%20Design/landing%20pages/eplan-claim-logo.svg) - [Home](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/eplan-training-courses?hsLang=en-gb) - Training Courses [EPLAN Electric P8](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/p8-training-courses?hsLang=en-gb) [EPLAN Pro Panel](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/propanel-training-courses?hsLang=en-gb) [Other Solutions](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/other-training?hsLang=en-gb) [EPLAN Certified Engineer \[ECE\]](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/ece-certification?hsLang=en-gb) [Industry-Specific Courses](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/industry-training?hsLang=en-gb) - [Training Dates](https://discover.eplan.co.uk/training-dates?hsLang=en-gb) - [Virtual Requirements](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/virtual-classroom?hsLang=en-gb) - [Enquiries](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/eplan-training-enquiry?hsLang=en-gb) - [Contact Us](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/contact-us-eplantraining?hsLang=en-gb) ![preplanning header](https://solutions.eplan.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/preplanning%20header.png?width=2000&height=631&name=preplanning%20header.png "preplanning header") ### P&ID Design **Goals and objectives** Create intelligent flow diagrams for process engineering plants. Reuse and symbol management are key features. You will learn how to map complex process plants in a structured manner and document your planning consistently throughout. You will also learn how automation and standardised symbols can save you time and improve the quality of your flow diagrams.   **Who is this course aimed at?** You work in process, machine and plant or building automation. Your task includes the creation of P&ID flow charts and the preliminary planning of process control points including actuators and sensors or the creation of building plans, control schemes and, for example, GA function lists.   **How long is the course?** Online seminars - 4 days.   **Seminar requirements** Basic PC knowledge and basic knowledge in dealing with Windows   **Contents:** - Creation of piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&ID) - Importing preliminary planning data - Management of measuring points and devices - Use of intelligent symbols and standard libraries - Generation of evaluations (measuring point lists, etc.) - Automatic plausibility check of flow diagrams for consistency and standard compliance - Links to further engineering data **Please check the available course dates. If the course is not scheduled, please enquire to show your interest.** [![Training Dates](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/3056111/bb4e821a-c17c-49fd-ab5f-843f054fc491.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/3056111/bb4e821a-c17c-49fd-ab5f-843f054fc491) Blog Post ### Are Eplan training courses available online?
