About Ashdale Industrial Control
Training Courses
Venue
The standard courses are normally carried out at Ashdale Engineering's own premises in Belfast where we have a dedicated training room. See Map on page 14.
However, we also offer the flexibility of on-site training at your facility.
Format of Training
Although some of the training will require presentations, we aim to break these up as much as possible with hands on practical use of the Hardware and the relevant programming software. We will have one computer and set of hardware between two students.
Ashdale courses are planned and presented under our ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System and we are also recognised as a Mitsubishi Electric "Centre of Technical Excellence". We are sure you will find these courses practical, technically useful and hopefully an enjoyable way of learning about industrial technology.
Group Size
Up to 10 delegates, with a minimum of 4 for Ashdale based courses. On site courses consist of up to 6 delegates. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis either on receipt of a booking form or confirmation order.
Food
Refreshments are available throughout the day. Lunch is included in the price of the course.
Materials
All necessary training materials like pens, note paper, course notes etc are supplied by Ashdale. A completion certificate is issued at the end of the course.
Duration
Courses start at 9.00 and finish at approximately 4.30pm.
Contact
Patricia Sargent is the main contact for all training enquiries and bookings. For more information call 028 9078 3000, fax 028 9037 0003 or email [email protected]
Booking
See course registration form on page 18 of this publication. Course details will then be sent to participants at least 1 week before the course date, after which no refund can be made for cancellations.
Bespoke courses
To ensure that we cater for everyone’s needs, Ashdale also offer the option of running tailored courses. These can be at Ashdale or on site at your premises. These courses can be tailored to suit the needs of your personnel.
