Course description

Electrical Workshop -- Basics to Troubleshooting

Available in both virtual and in-person, instructor-led formats, this four-day Electrical Workshop Basics to Troubleshooting seminar provides an intensive electrical training experience that covers the basics of electricity all the way through troubleshooting a facility's own electrical systems.

Please note that this workshop is a special combination of two of our most popular seminars. It combines the two-day Basic Electricity for the Non-Electrician and the two-day Electrical Troubleshooting and Preventive Maintenance seminar. These seminars are offered consecutively in the same week to create a more comprehensive training opportunity.

Course delivery details

Virtual training is a cost-efficient alternative to offsite training. Taught online through live video conferences, virtual training allows employees to develop electrical troubleshooting skills in a safe, socially distanced environment. Taught by experienced instructors, electrical troubleshooting virtual training offers all the benefits of a live classroom, including face-to-face employee/instructor interactions and group discussions.

All your employees need to access virtual training courses is a computer, an internet connection, a microphone, webcam, and speakers. Classes can be scheduled around regular work hours, and employees can take the course either at work or at home. Hands-on electrical troubleshooting is even possible, thanks to TPC's newest teaching methodology, simulation-based training.

Costs

The cost for the full 4-day workshop is $2,390. The two-day seminars may also be purchased individually for $1,195.

Continuing studies

Upon completion of this seminar, the student will receive a certification of completion with 8 classroom hours (.8 TPC Training CEUs) per day attended.
