The course in parts is not relevant to our day to day work. Large sections were irrelevant and tough to pay attention to. There is also no certification for us to achieve which made the course boring some weeks as there was nothing to attain so hard to keep concentrated. The weekly sections should be shortened and be more tailored to Siemens needs. More fault finding and testing should be included. I also feel the course should be shortened. The instructor Phil, and Dave who we had for a week were excellent and extremely patient given we had little knowledge of electrics before hand. It was a pleasure to be taught by Phil who tried his best to keep things interesting throughout. I suggest the SGRE training department sit on a course to realise how large parts of the course were useless to us.
Knowledgable tutor with lots of experience. The course perhaps could’ve been designed better to deliver the required information.
I felt like the course wasn’t relevant to what we were needing to learn. Due to our work not involving a lot HV apparatus which is what the course seemed to focus on. I feel a course with more LV testing and fault finding would be better suited for what we need and give us a better understanding of the electrical system we perform maintenance on.
Norman was a brilliant lecturer but unfortunately it was not the correct course for us. We were expecting an electrical basics course but instead it was a basic HV awareness course. The faraday centre was a good training venue and hopefully next time we can be on a course which suits us better.
The course was very slides heavy. Needs more variety for 3 days. The course tutor new his stuff and was engaging
Very poor course content. 90% of module not relevant to our day to day roles
Felt like a 1 day course dragged out over a week.
Good to have some knowledge on PLC programming. But not relevant to my job. Feel like this course would be better with a lot more practical work relevant to wind turbines. Trobleshooting
Good week which has been very informative and will help me when I get by to my workplace
Didn't find the course had any relevance as to what we will be doing on the job. Would of been a better course and understating , if the course was more practical with a practical assement. I would of liked to have spent more time ,learning and understanding, the equipment used. Recording results onto test forms. We do not carry out any HV isolations in our work place. The permit will be completed by HV guys ,whilst we work on the LV outgoing cables
