Error-Free® Component Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, I&C)

Why is this course unique?

Many engineers are not trained on the fundamental principles in design, operation, and monitoring of failure symptoms for the components they manage; including procurement, operability assessment, maintenance, troubleshooting, and design modification.

This course provides students with a unique insight on design, operation, monitoring, and troubleshooting for various components, based on more than 30 years of experience in the US high standard industries.

There are three versions to this course, each with a separate emphasis on one of the following type of component:

  1. Electrical components
  2. I&C components
  3. Mechanical components

Benefits of this course:

This course enables attendees to perform component engineering work without error.
