ETD Consulting is pleased to offer a unique In-house Training Course on Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) for Power
and/or Process Plants (both conventional and CCGT). This RCM Course will give your Plant personnel a detailed understanding
of RCM and consider how an RCM program can be successfully devised and implemented for your particular Plant, to increase
efficiency and productivity while saving costs.
ETD's RCM Training Course will be tailored specifically for your Plant and adjusted to suit your personnel's prior level of RCM
knowledge. Before the Training Course, ETD will ask you to provide background information on your Plant, so that we can tailor
our RCM Course according to your Plant requirements and needs. Your plant personnel/ engineers/ managers will be the only
attendees at the Training Course, so discussions can be at the level appropriate for them. This also means that we can have frank
and informative discussions, in confidence, about RCM specific to your Plant.
ETD's Training Course can be delivered in person to a venue of your choice, anywhere in the world. Alternatively, we can
deliver this Course remotely using our videoconference technology. At your end, the Seminar can be received through anything
from a full videoconferencing system to just a laptop or tablet computer. All you need is a stable internet connection. Our trainer
attends remotely and can fully engage and interact with your attendees.
ETD has previously delivered up to 4 day training events using our videoconferencing system and is experienced in providing
training through this medium. All technical connections will be fully tested with you prior to the delivery of the Training Course,
to ensure an excellent end user experience.
There is no limit on the number of attendees you
wish to include - you can have as many of your people
attend the Training Course as you can fit into your training
room! By using our remote delivery method, ETD is able
to provide invaluable knowledge to your people with
exceptional value for money.
