WHAT'S INCLUDED?
The course includes expert-led instruction, hands-on practical training using pneumatic training rigs, and all necessary learning materials. Participants gain experience building, modifying, and fault-finding pneumatic circuits.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This course is suitable for individuals wishing to gain a basic understanding of pneumatics or refresh their skills to work safely and competently with pneumatic systems in the workplace.
ASSESSMENT
Assessment is practical and ongoing, based on safe system setup, correct component use, and successful completion of pneumatic circuit tasks.
Additional Notes
Please note that this course may be cancelled and rescheduled if no uptake is received up to 14 days prior to the course start date.
A cancellation fee of 30% will be charged for cancellations within 24 hours of the course date. Failure to attend without notice will result in a full charge.
