XP leaderboard

The top 10 PLC Gym learners by XP. Every mission, lab and lesson you finish moves you up, through 30 levels and 10 titles, from Trainee to Master Integrator.

How far can you climb?

Loading the leaderboard…

Updates every few minutes. A mission counts here once your saved code has passed its tests again on our side, and a worked answer left unchanged doesn’t. Labs, lessons, chapters and right answers add up to as much as your checked work earns.

How to earn XP

  • A short chapter25 XP
