How the training works
- Practical learning: exercises based on real project deliverables, not just theory.
- Industry software: Smart Plant 3D, PDS / PDMS, MicroStation, AutoCAD, Tekla, X-Steel, ETAP, AutoPIPE, PIPEPHASE, CADPIPE, CAESAR II, INtools, STAAD Pro, HYSYS, PRO II, HTRI, CHVAC, HAP, Primavera P6 and Pertmaster.
- Onshore and offshore: modules cover both onshore plants and offshore facilities.
- Certificate: you receive a certificate and experience letter when you complete a course.
Who the courses are for
- Fresh graduates: engineering degree and diploma holders who want a practical start in the EPC industry.
- Working professionals: engineers, designers and site staff moving into a new discipline, role or sector, and teams upskilling together.
- Employers: in-company programmes designed around your projects, standards and software.
Formats and duration
- Live online classes: instructor-led sessions with printed and digital study material. Join from anywhere.
- In-company training: at your office or project site, tailored to your team.
- Blended programmes: online theory combined with hands-on workshops and project assignments.
Most weekday courses run for 1.5 to 2 months at about 2 hours a day. Weekend piping stress analysis runs for 3.5 months at about 3 hours a day. Every student gets CV guidance, interview preparation and career counselling.
