Automation & Control Systems in Nigeria & Africa in particular, is one of the key professions that needs industry boost & sustainability plan.

Our drive at International Society of Automation (ISA), Nigeria Section is to grow the Automation education & training systems, mentor candidates to getting certified as automation professionals, position ourselves as voice in driving compliance with standards & best practices, drive initiatives that closes the gaps between industry & academia (high school STEM & Tertiary Institutions for Students), support with innovative publications, monthly webinar on emerging technologies and organize conferences/workshops to increase and continue awareness & growth of ISA in Nigeria.
