Retained Knowledge

The course has been developed and learning modules structured so they leave with the retained knowledge to handle daily maintenance and routine interim services efficiently.  The course design and in-course testing ensure training retention so even new employees are leaving with the ability to operate efficiently with the knowledge and situational awareness they have gained.  Beyond more efficient maintenance, participants are also able to avoid the kind of mechanical setting missteps, system adjustments, automated alarm responses and troubleshooting mistakes that so often cause unnecessary down time and create unneeded set up delays. The most successful participants have been maintenance and service team members with all levels of experience who have actively participated in both the classroom and hands-on technical training with the equipment.

 

Training That Pays

Participants learn about wear parts lifecycles and the basic maintenance parts that should be on-hand and are historically in inventory with the most efficient maintenance and service operations.  With so many unnecessary parts often on the shelves of even the most respected processors, the expense of time away for this course often immediately pays for itself just with the savings in time lost and parts costs that comes with more data-driven inventory management.
