The British Academy for Training and Development offers this training program in "Modern Maintenance Techniques" to provide participants with a solid foundation in advanced maintenance systems and strategies that align with current industrial standards.

This course equips professionals with the knowledge and methodologies required to optimize maintenance operations, reduce downtime, and enhance the reliability and performance of equipment and systems. It highlights modern maintenance trends such as predictive maintenance, condition-based monitoring, and the use of digital tools in asset management.

The program content is presented in a structured and knowledge-focused manner, without the inclusion of case studies, practical exercises, or group discussions—making it ideal for professionals seeking clear, applicable frameworks in maintenance planning and execution.

Who should attend? 

• Maintenance engineers and technicians in industrial and service sectors.

• Operations managers overseeing facility and equipment maintenance.

• Asset management professionals responsible for performance optimization.

• Technical supervisors seeking to improve their maintenance practices.
