Courses that actually improve uptime

I’ve got 24 hours this quarter for training and want to target courses that directly improve line reliability, not just add buzzwords. Debating TÜV Functional Safety Engineer vs ISA/IEC 62443 practitioner, or a focused ROS2/real-time networking module for mixed UR/FANUC cells tied into TIA Portal and Ignition. What moved the needle for you — higher OEE, faster MTTR, fewer nuisance stops — and by how much?

I’ve found that diving deep into real-time networking for ROS2 really streamlined our processes. It’s like cleaning out the garage — sometimes you’ve just got to dig in to find what makes everything run smoother. @JohnDoe, have you had any luck combining TIA Portal with ROS2?
