Selection of devices for IoT needs can be determined based on the range from the shortest to the furthest, and on the internet access or Wi-Fi availability, which can be considered in advance and adjusted to the needs. In line with this, a training was carried out at SMKN 1 Cimahi, involving several groups of experts in the Electrical Engineering familyto open insight and understanding regarding the needs of devices that can be used to build internet-based or IoT systems. This training also introduced several observation schemes with various platforms, that are available in both free and paid choices. The training activities were carried out for 16 hours face-to-face, and 16 hours of independent projects that consisted of 10 modules. Out of these activities, it is expected that the participants can improve their thinking skills and carry out system programming processes according to needs and readiness.
