Safe Operation & Management of Industrial Steam Boilers
An exciting new Training course assured by City and Guilds
Putting practical skills at the forefront
Incorporating both practical and classroom-based learning, this new and exciting approach to industrial boiler training ensures you will have the opportunity to engage with the trainer, the equipment, and the learning process.
This course is designed to give candidates a thorough understanding of the boiler house and steam boiler operation, giving operators the knowledge required to confidently operate their own equipment safely and efficiently.
Assessments that put your needs first
The 12 teaching modules are logically arranged to cover the boiler system from cold water supply, through control, and ending with the basics of boiler management. At the end of each section of learning there will be a short online test or practical assessment with an industry professional.
