NOTE: QQI is the new awarding body and at time of writing ( May 2015) no decision has been received from QQI to the submission made (Jan 2015) by the First Polymer Skillnet to QQI for certification of these 5 days courses.    Please phone for an update Jean 087 6177599

Yes, we normally can. Our trainers cover a broad range of electrical engineering / PLC / mechanical engineering training, with relevant experience. We also use a contact network in the event that we might need to supplement our existing skills. If the course needs to be supported by hardware and software (that we do not have or do not cover as part of our standard programmes) we will need to discuss the costs of this with you along of course with the cost of research, design, documenting and delivering the training.

Each participant is supplied with a work-board designed for replicate electrical plant installations and set up in industry. This includes as standard equipment three phase and single phase mcbs, three phase motor contactor with overload block, step down transformer, stop start push buttons and simulated load connections. For the course we also supply a box of tools, multi-meter, cables / flex / all components and a calculator and in addition a comprehensive set of notes (for each participant to take away for reference).

Participants are supplied with a lap top, software and the Programmable Logic Controllers along with a set of notes. We can focus on Allen Bradley and Siemens Programmable Logic Controllers and SCADA Systems.

A cut away pump along with ‘used’ or ‘damaged’ seals, bearings, shafts, flanges, etc., to ‘show’ how the damaged element looks/ appears.

Yes indeed and we would be happy to discuss this with you.
