Registered Training Organisation
Custom Fluidpower is now a Registered Training Organisation providing
accredited fluid power training based on current industry practices.
In the past decade, the fluid power industry has experienced a high
level of change with the fast progression of technology and modern
applications. This has resulted in difficulties for traditional fluid
power training organisations in staying current regarding industry
practices, component knowledge and qualified resources.
This lag, combined with the growing problem of many experienced
hydraulic experts retiring or approaching retirement age, has resulted
in a knowledge gap in the fluid power industry, a gap which Custom
Fluidpower can now successfully fill.
The hydraulic industry involves people coming into contact with
potentially dangerous scenarios on a daily basis, with 3.5% of all
workplace deaths being related to fluid power. The industry should
command the same level of training available to other trade industries
such as electricity.
Custom Fluidpower has put our hundreds of hours of accumulated
knowledge towards developing training packages that meet current
industry best practice, are aligned to national standards and are MDG41
compliant.
These fluid power training packages cater for a range of skill levels,
from those new to the industry, through to apprentices and engineers.
The courses are practical and are designed around the workplace,
relating to jobs that are performed on a daily basis, with assessment
of competency based on performance of actual tasks and underpinned by
knowledge ensuring the task is completed to meet the relevant standards.
Custom Fluidpower will offer skills recognition for the courses through
a process that recognises the skills and knowledge that has been
acquired through the course of life, vocational transitions, formal or
informal training and education.
Courses available include:
• Introduction to Fluid Power - suitable for fitters or engineers that have no fluid power experience
• Shut down and isolate machine/equipment - This unit applies to situations that require extensive system knowledge that exclude the straightforward starting/stopping of machinery/equipment through the use of simple switching, including use of emergency switches. Shut down/isolation is undertaken autonomously or as part of teamwork
• 8 Specialised Individual Hydraulics units - typically delivered to fitters or engineers that have fluid power experience
• Certificate IV in Engineering (Fluid Power) - suitable for people currently working in this engineering sector as a special class tradesperson or a fluid power technician
