Map a module as a journey of screens. Operators work a live 3D cell and real ISA-101 HMI panels, and exam gates grade what they do, not what they remember.
Every module is a route through screens. Each screen picks its own layout: an immersive 3D cell, a workstation of HMI monitors, or a reading page.
// learner/journey.json { "startId": "scr-meet", "screens": [ { "name": "Meet Conveyor 01", "style": "document" }, { "name": "Walk the cell", "style": "immersive" }, { "name": "Start-up at the HMI", "panelIds": ["panel-main"], "advanceWhen": { "tag": "CONV01.Run", "op": "==", "value": 1 } }, { "name": "Aptitude check", "kind": "exam", "passMark": 80, "attempts": 3, "onFail": "scr-startup" } ] }
This is a real screen task. The step waits for CONV01.Run == 1. Close the guard door, press START, and watch the journey move on. Open the door and the interlock trips.
Check the guard is closed, clear the E-stop, then press START. Keep the speed in its normal band.
Panels follow high-performance HMI practice: state shown by fill and shape, moving analog indicators with a normal band, and colour kept for abnormal values and alarms. ISA-5.1 symbols come built in.
Exams grade operating, spotting on camera and reacting against the clock, as well as multiple choice. Set the pass mark and attempts, and choose where a fail goes.
Practise on “Start-up at the HMI”, then try the exam again.
Whether you run a plant floor, teach a class, or need to prove you can do the job, it's the same studio and the same journeys.
Turn your own start-ups, lockouts and faults into 3D drills on a model of your line, so new hires ramp up in days, not weeks.
Lessons, process diagrams, walkthroughs and questions in one place, with no code and no authoring team.
Aptitudes scored on what you actually do at the panel: every tested area, taken once, under the clock.
Require an aptitude on any job listing, on industrial.careers or on your own careers page. Candidates run the panel; you get verified results, area by area.
TSSA fundamentals, boiler safety, your own start-up: every tested area must be passed.
The gate sits on your apply page and opens the exam; the result comes straight back.
Certificates are checked server to server, and a signed webhook reports every attempt, pass or fail.
Pass or fail is shared; scores only if the candidate chooses. One wallet link holds every certificate.

Set your organisation's name, logo and accent once, and every module your learners play carries it. Pick a theme for the player, from midnight control-room dark to clean light.
Follow these steps each time you start the conveyor.
One published module plays on every screen in the plant.
A shareable player link. Nothing to install.
Layouts reflow from iPad to phone, so operators can train between rounds.
Workstation screens and camera walls run full screen as a kiosk.
Step into the 3D cell in VR, or view it in the room with AR passthrough.
Export any module as plain JSON and assets: tags, panels, scene, journey. Review it in a pull request, diff it between revisions, and keep it in your own repository.

io.training works with two sister tools. The same ISA symbols and the same tags flow from one to the next.
Draw and animate ISA-5.1 and ISA-101 symbols, bound to PLC tags. They drop straight into io.training's HMI panels.
The HMI workbench: stories for every state, visual tests, and the targets a panel will run on before it ships.
Put those panels in a live cell, map the journey, and gate it with exams that grade what operators do.
Start with the conveyor starter module: a 3D cell, an ISA-101 panel, a start-up task and an exam gate, ready to make your own.
