Operational excellence is the ambition of all enterprises. In the power industry, companies can only attain – and sustain – operational excel-lence by focusing not only on their installations, but also on their staff’s continued improvement and skills enhancement. That is precisely the purpose for which Alstom Grid designed its top-of-the-line training program: Competence Management.

The Alstom Grid Competence Management program is tailored to customers’ specifi c training needs. It is an extremely in-depth program that homes in on the skills and knowledge a customer needs to main-tain its installation in optimum operating condition. And since it is designed to train people to the highest skill level, it also serves to boost employees’ career development programs, leading them to become certifi ed technical leaders.

in a certain discipline or group of disciplines to expert level. It could cover such areas as safety, networks, HV, power transformers, auto-mation or even the full range of GIS skills. It starts with a thorough assessment of existing skills, which is then used as input to determine the training modules needed, and to design and prepare them. Some-times, if the knowledge base of the trainees varies greatly, training can be split into different levels.

Based on the assessment results, the training program is then prepa-red. This is a major investment in time and effort in selecting the appropriate training materials, adapting them to the specifi c customer needs in question, and even creating completely new training material to fi t the company, the trainees’ needs and the defi ned objectives.

Then the training proper begins. It will be delivered at one of the 15 specialized worldwide Alstom Grid training centers – the one that best matches the particular skills needs in question. These training centers are located at or close to Alstom Grid plants and so are able to deliver hands-on as well as classroom training. Depending on the topics covered, this phase can vary considerably in length. The training also includes interspersed assessments to evaluate the participants’ progress and their achievement of objectives.

The third part of the program takes place at the customer’s site. This gives the trainees the opportunity to learn and practice on their own equipment and in their own working environment.

Qualification

The Competence Management training concludes with a final assess-ment. This reflects the progress made by the participants and the

Certificate handed over to the participant. This document is no mere attendance certificate, but a true Competence Certificate that gua-rantees the training quality and certifies that the individual has indeed acquired the skills required.

Electrical safety

Working safely in an electrical environment relies on four parameters: • be qualified in Electrical Safety

• know the electrical installation

• wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) • have a regular practice of electrical work

The first two can be acquired through training and the last two are mandatory to reach the “zero accident” objective.

According to Health & Safety organizations statistics, 80% of accidents are due to behavioral issues.

With this in mind, Alstom Grid Technical Institute set a training methodology based on practicing on real scale equipment.

Concerning the electrical risk, to reinforce your zero accident policy, our international safety experts have designed a specific e-Learning program to enable people to:

• Test themselves

• Have a refreshment of their knowledge

• Receive more in-depth training according to their level of knowledge, at their own pace.

Training and self assessment are closely linked to allow the trainee to be aware of what is at the stake, to learn fundamental rules and

safety in hazardous areas (ATEX)

Explosive atmospheres are a major risk to the employee in hazardous areas. In order to preserve the health and safety of the workers dealing with electrical equipment installed in these areas, a company should comply with three more obligations:

• be qualified in ATEX

• use ATEX certified equipment

• have installations regularly audited and certified for this risk. The first can be acquired through training, and the last two are, as well as for Electrical Safety, mandatory to reach the “zero accident” objective.

Alstom Grid Technical Institute has real auditor trainers amongst whom, some are certified by INERIS (French National Institute for Industrial and Environmental Risk).

All training courses proposed in this Safety section are based on the trainers’ and trainees’ experiences as well as real case studies. This is done this way so that trainees can acquire and increase

To optimize your electrical installation you can limit production

outages, improve power quality and better manage disturbances

that could lead to defaults. In order to achieve this, a good

knowledge of electrical design is needed, but an understanding

of the latest technological developments is critical.

To meet your installation needs, including new installations and/or modifications or extensions of existing ones, Alstom Grid Technical Institute proposes training courses that cover:

• different installation types and architectures • all voltage levels

• installations equipped with, or without, Alstom Grid products • your specific installation.

Alstom Grid Technical Institute ensures the most effective training methods for its clients. This is done by providing the technical exper-tise to the trainee in a progressive way. Here are the steps we suggest:

• e-learning is proposed to the trainee at the discovery phase. This way of training allows the learner to acquire the fundamentals and useful information at his own pace. The trainee can define his pro-gram over a variety of modules. It can be covered in a couple of hours, or up to fifty.

• technical seminars are set to help the trainee focus on a specific topic, in order to deepen and/or update his knowledge.

• installation design courses offer the possibility to understand the installation operation principles, even at a downgraded mode, in relation with the standards and rules.

• network Operation courses are designed to help the trainee reach an advanced stage of knowledge that will allow them to go beyond installation and substation expertise and to acquire a global view on the network operations.

your installation at the heart of our training

process!

This training offer can also be adapted to your own specific electrical installation.

Alstom Grid Technical Institute’s expert trainers can study, in full confi-dentiality, your installation schemes, specification, technical data and operating procedures, to create and deliver customized teaching mate-rial that will optimize the competencies of your personnel.

Whatever training curriculum is chosen, the trainee will be sensitized to normal and fault conditions of network and installation operation. We are convinced that after our training the trainee will better analyze situations and find out the appropriate solutions.
