Training Overview

Training Overview

The Mini Master in Electrical Systems Engineering is an advanced, intensive training course tailored for professionals managing mission-critical electrical systems. In modern industries—whether in oil & gas, utilities, heavy industry, or infrastructure—electrical assets form the backbone of safe, efficient, and sustainable operations. Failure or inefficiency in these systems can result in downtime, costly repairs, safety hazards, or compliance issues.

This 10-day training course blends rigorous technical learning with applied engineering practices and strategic perspectives, offering a holistic development journey that goes beyond routine maintenance. Participants will master the design, operation, testing, troubleshooting, and optimization of diesel generators, DC power systems, cathodic protection networks, and switchgear systems. The program also introduces leadership elements, asset lifecycle management, and system integration strategies to align with the “Mini MBA” concept.

By the end of this course, attendees will gain a solid foundation in both technical expertise and strategic thinking—equipping them to ensure high reliability, operational excellence, and long-term value creation in electrical infrastructure.

What are the goals?

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Provide an advanced technical foundation in maintaining and optimizing critical electrical assets
  • Develop problem-solving and troubleshooting skills for complex systems
  • Strengthen participants’ knowledge of design, commissioning, testing, and preventive maintenance
  • Enhance system reliability through fault analysis, protection coordination, and performance optimization
  • Integrate technical practices with leadership and asset management strategies
  • Equip participants to align engineering practices with organizational performance and sustainability goals
