Professional Development Courses

Master the essential engineering calculations required for OSHA’s Process Safety Management (PSM) and EPA’s Risk Management Plan (RMP) compliance. This course focuses on ammonia refrigeration systems and equips you with the tools to properly document, assess, and support regulatory requirements.

Develop a proactive, data-driven asset strategy using proven methodologies like FMEA, PM Optimization, and RCM. This course equips engineers with the tools to reduce equipment failures, optimize maintenance plans, and drive operational reliability.

An updated analytics course for technical leaders, focused on practical tools, Excel-based analysis, and data-driven decision-making.

Lubrication is the foundation of equipment reliability—and when done right, it dramatically reduces wear, downtime, and maintenance costs. This course delivers the essential knowledge and practical skills to build and execute a world-class lubrication strategy.

Explore the core manufacturing systems that drive modern production, from traditional models to agile, customer-focused methodologies. This course equips engineers with the tools to evaluate system performance, optimize processes, and align operations with strategic goals.

A reliable maintenance organization depends on having the right material, in the right condition, at the right place, at the right time, and at the right cost. When storeroom data, inventory practices, purchasing processes, or material flow break down, maintenance work slows, costs rise, and equipment reliability suffers. The Materials Management seminar equips storeroom, purchasing, maintenance, and reliability professionals with the strategic practices, tactical processes, and practical tools needed to improve material availability while controlling inventory investment. Participants learn how to strengthen data accuracy, optimize stocking decisions, improve procurement and storeroom workflows, and build a customized improvement plan for their site.

Maintenance supervisors occupy one of the most influential roles in any organization. They don't simply supervise work—they transform organizational intent into operational results by leading people, developing capability, and driving execution. The Supervising Maintenance course equips maintenance supervisors and frontline leaders with the leadership knowledge, practical tools, and supervisory practices needed to transform organizational goals into daily execution. Participants learn how to lead people, improve team performance, communicate effectively, and develop practical action plans that strengthen both their leadership capability and the performance of their maintenance organization.

TPR360 (Total Performance Reliability) complements the Developing a Winning Strategic Plan for Reliability course by providing a complete model of what a high-performing Maintenance and Reliability organization actually looks like.  In coordination with an organizational strategic plan, TPR360 focuses on the structure of Maintenance and Reliability itself. Participants learn the complete Maintenance Performance System, including the 3 Strategic Pillars, 6 Management Domains, 24 Tactical Disciplines, and 9 System Enablers that collectively define Maintenance and Reliability excellence.
