The Faraday Centre Reviews

For someone who did not do any of this before, i have to say the fantastic, the tutor Gary was also fantastic.

Not impressed. This course should have been completed in 1 day but it was stretched out for 2 days. Probably to justify the cost of the course. Thought is was meant to have been a mechanical lototo with hands on practical experience, but instead it was classroom based concentrating health and safety legislation with no practical training. The course did not teach me anything that I did not know already.

Course needs fundamentally revising to allow continuous feedback on safety programme which will allow incremental improvements. I will address this through the CBRE Technical network.

The course does not align with the current rwe operational safety rules, several aspects of the presentation are wrong. Needs aligned with the safety rules we use offshore on a daily basis

Course does not cover the content required for learning the SAP 3 role in line with the latest version of the OSRs. More course detail specifically for the SFT and SAP role needs to be added, not repeating SAP1/2 material.

Seriously, this was the worst course I have attended in my 40 year career in engineering. We should not be invoiced for this; we lost 4 man days and learnt almost nothing. There was not enough preparation and we had only finished the induction by the time we took first break at 10am. The course materials were poor and must surely have been written by someone with no experience of ROV or subsea vehicle systems. The equipment did not function in the practical area. There was no structure to the course at all. The instructor clearly had plenty of electrical experience but in power stations or DNO environments, NOT in marine, especially subsea vehicles. Any questions I asked were skirted around, I suspect because of lack of knowledge in the specialist area.

This course added zero value. The course has no structure and isn't focused on ROV's or the marine industry. The notes are clearly re-purposed from power stations. The materials also didn't cover the extremely vague assessment questions at the end of the course. It was clear that the lecturer had electrical experience but not relevant to ROV's or marine industry. We spent more time focusing on the site induction (that we'd already done online) than any electrical switching. The switchgear didn't work during the practical and the training materials weren't suitable. Nice lunch.

this course wasn't good unfortunately. the preparation seemed poor and the course structure was all over the place. we had an induction and touched on the electricity at work act (which didn't seem relevant) before lunch. in reality, we had an hour discussing test equipment and proving dead without a clear method of doing so, however the switchboard wasn't working and the notes weren't clear. unfortunately, I don't feel like I've gained anything from the course.

Norman is very knowledgeable and demonstrated great experience. The course contents it’s not very substantial. A lot of critical information left out from the RWE OSR’s. I think the two companies need to compile something better. Some of the slides do not read correct (poor grammar). Food choices were poor. Food order sheet submitted before the course but ended up not going through to the kitchen.

Issues with content supplied by company, trainer very good
