The Faraday Centre Reviews

More detail about the manufactures operation and maintenance manual and less about the HV Safety Rules.

The morning part of the course was unnecessary but the afternoon content was perfect

Second half that involved the switch gear was good and definitely worth doing however the start going through safety rules was not

Great tutor and equipment but morning rules etc not relevant at all when done city and guilds SAP course.

Felt course could have been stretched over a longer of period of time with more examples of the testing etc. Possible flow chart of when to perform the test and what test etc

Although the course did ultimately provide the training required, I felt it was very poorly designed, with insufficient focus on the real subject, which was Safe operation of marine ROV power systems, There was far too much theory material in the course for the instructor to try and get through in a day, much of which wasn't actually relevant to Marine ROV power systems. Strangely this course is advertised on your website as a 1 day course. However we did it in 2, and even that required the instructor to rush many parts and leave out some. So I think a redesign of the course is required.

The course was more focused on HV transmission system than ROV systems the course is adverted at. There was alot of information that although interesting was not relivent to a ROV style system as there is not HV switching in these systems. Steve was knowledgeable on the transmission side of things, and this knowledge has help us identify areas we can improve in.

I was given a printout of course material but it was very hard to follow and seemed to be inconsistent with what was on screen. some slides shown on screen were not in the printout and it seemed to jump back and forth through slides

Practicals would have been more interesting however Steve was great

Lecturer very good answered any questions I had , found the course very fast paced and hard to keep up with? Very likely due to my own lack of knowledge!
