Plant Operations Training 

To make correct operating decisions, an operator must consider three essential factors – safety, efficiency and productivity. Companies must ensure that their operators have the required knowledge, skills and abilities to safely carry out their duties and responsibilities. Operations training  from CiNet Industrial Skills can help your company meet both internal as well as regulatory requirements.

Available in Web, CD-ROM and video formats, the Operations program is designed to enhance operator troubleshooting skills by giving operators an understanding of process plant safety considerations and working conditions, an overview of the processes, a foundation of technical knowledge, and specific training on the complex equipment found in today’s plants.

More than 200 titles are available in the subject areas of:


Process Plant Fundamentals
Operators learn about basic job responsibilities, industrial math and science, how to read plant diagrams, and the operation of equipment and systems that are common to all process plants.

 

Safety
This series describes the various hazards found in industrial plants and provides the information that operators need to know to work safely and to help ensure the plant operates in compliance with government regulations.

 


 Power Plant Operations

This comprehensive library covers the generation of electricity in fossil fuel plants that use the steam/water cycle, simple-cycle plants that use combustion turbines, and combined-cycle plants. For fossil plants, special courses are provided on the topics of heat rate improvement to help maintain or improve unit efficiency. Nineteen additional courses focus on the hazards, environmental controls and efficient operating practices associated with coal handling systems.

 


 
 Chemical Plant Operations

The courses contained within this library apply to many types of process plants that produce a variety of products. Together with the Process Plant Fundamentals and Safety courses, the courses within this library can help personnel operate specific process units safely and efficiently.

 



 Refinery Plant Operations

Refinery operators need to understand several things: the principles behind the refinery process, how material is transformed into product, how individual pieces of equipment process materials, and how the equipment is operated. Unit operating procedures make more sense to an operator who understands the dynamics of the system being operated.

 


 Pulp & Paper Plant Operations

This library provides a foundation of technical knowledge as well as instruction in the function and operation of specific pulp and papermaking equipment to allow operators to safely maintain high unit efficiency and produce product that meets required specifications.

 

Laboratory Technician Training
For plant sites that contain one or more laboratory operations for the analysis of raw materials and/or products, the Laboratory Technician Training series covers basic chemistry, lab equipment and procedures.

 


 Industrial Leadership

The series trains industrial supervisors how to acquire effective managerial skills. The series uses examples from typical industrial work situations to reinforce key concepts. Topics range from communicating clearly and making sound decisions, to more complex issues, like making the transition from worker to supervisor, managing work teams, and maintaining discipline.
