Process Operator Training


City & Guilds Process Technology Level 2

Training of process operators is becoming increasingly important in the chemical industry.

The City & Guilds (C&G) Institute based in London is an internationally recognised body that awards qualifications suitable for staff in the process industries.

The Process Technology Certificate Level 2 can be gained via a part-time open learning course and therefore is ideally suited for operators who frequently work a rotating shift system and cannot easily attend colleges.

Kappa Tau Consulting is able to offer this course with tutorial support for process operators working in the chemical process industry.

We use comprehensive training manuals developed originally over several years by Cleveland Open Learning Unit.

We can also supply interactive Multi-Media materials on CD-ROMS to supplement the manuals and the tutorial services.
The course leads to the award of a City & Guilds Certificate in Process Technology.

The complete C&G course is studied in two parts and we can offer both. The details here are for the first part that is termed Level 2.

The course can be completed in one year although on average 15 to 18 months is usual.

The course consists of a study programme using a number of self-contained modules with an examination at the end of each.

The examination is usually taken on-site if appropriate supervision is provided and a certificate is awarded for each module. The examinations can be taken throughout the year on demand thus removing the end-of-year examination panic common with many courses.

In the UK this C&G course is directly related to the National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ) and can be used as evidence of competence of operators hoping to gain an NVQ award.
The tutorial support can be by visits, or via video conferencing, or webcam links. It is also possible to offer true distance support via telephone, letter or email. This latter method is less costly and is only effective for well motivated operators or where there is good on-site support.
