Training Certificate

Prolific Consultants FZE Certificate of Course Completion will be issued to all attendees.

Course Introduction

This is an intensive short course and will be based upon a mixture of classroom instruction and discussion combined with workshop sessions. It will also make use of multi-media materials and involve small group and individual problem solving workshop sessions to reinforce the learning experience.

Course Objective

The course is broadly designed to incorporate all issues related to boilers starting with design aspects, installation, operation, control and boiler maintenance. Other issues are included within the course such as legal requirements and regulations, environmental and safety aspects, energy consumption, boiler efficiency and water treatment. For more course details, please refer to the course topics.

Suitable For

Boiler Design Engineers (Mechanical and Chemical), Boiler Inspectors, Steam Plant Operators, Maintenance Technicians, Engineers & Managers, Operation Managers, Safety Officers & Technicians, Environmental Officers, and Boiler Design Engineers are recommended to attend the course.

Training Methodology

A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information and knowledge transfer. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions, and motivate everybody find the right answers. You will also be encouraged to raise your own questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your own analysis and experiences. Tests of multiple-choice type will be made available on daily basis to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course.
