SUMMARY:Problem Solving and Decision Making
DESCRIPTION:Click here to REGISTER \n\nCOURSE DESCRIPTION: \nSolving problems and making decisions in a creative manner can be the key to more productive and effective employees and managers in any organization. Problem-solving and decision-making are not easy for most people. It is like a journey into the unknown requiring creativity\, intuition and imagination\, careful analysis\, diagnosis\, and step-by-step action planning. Creative Problem Solving and Decision Making is designed to enable participants to learn and apply concepts and techniques related to an integrated versatile approach to problem-solving resulting in better and more effective decisions. \nLearn the tools and processes to find the right solutions to most/ any problem or situation.\nFinding the Solution is a highly interactive and memorable training workshop. The participants will learn specific tools for solving problems by doing…by solving problems. They will learn how to find solutions using 4 steps: \n\nFocusing – Define\, prioritize\, focus and analyze problems.\nIdea Generating – Generating creative & useful ideas\,\napproaches and solutions\nDecision Making – Making the best possible decision\nImplementing – Ensure that solutions are implemented\n\nThey will learn the techniques that go with each step such as “gap analysis\,” “random stimulation\,” and “decision-making analysis”. They will develop awareness and understanding of the need to use a problem-solving process. \nThe focus of this training may be on group or individual problem solving and decision making or a mixture of both. \nOBJECTIVES: \nParticipants will be able to… \n\nFocus on the “true” problem\nEstablish accurate goals for problem-solving\nPrioritize problems and decide which problems should get attention\nGenerate ideas quickly\nBreak through barriers and mental blocks\nFind viable solutions\nSort through lots of ideas\nEvaluate alternative courses of action\nMake good decisions so all team members are satisfied\nConsider both the risks and benefits in a choice\nAnalyze what needs to be accomplished\nEnsure acceptance of the solutions\nDevelop and use action plans as a group or individually.\n\nWHO SHOULD ATTEND: \nAnyone involved in deciding business strategies and activities\, managing projects\, or otherwise responsible for delivering results within an organization\, (e.g. CEO\, CFO\, manager\, supervisors\, etc). There are no prerequisites for this course \nMETHODOLOGY: \n\nAs the trainer comes with more than thirty years of real-life corporate experience\, the methodology will involve the following:\nIndividual Assessments\nUse of participant manual/worksheets\nUse of a combination of presentation and group activities\nStorytelling of real-life situations\nInteractive group discussions\nChallenging the thinking of participants\nProviding input to participants’ real-life situations\n\nCOURSE OUTLINE: \n\nWhy a Problem Solving Process?\nWhat is a Problem?\nThe Creative Problem-Solving Process\nMaking Decisions\nThe Tools of Creative Problem Solving\nApplying the Creative Problem Solving Process\n\nThe workshop is filled with tools that are recipes for solving most / any problem. We treat this book like any recipe book when creating a meal. In using a recipe book you pick and choose whatever recipes would suit your needs. Much in the same way\, you could pick and choose the “recipes” in this book that are appropriate for the problem. The participants will learn which “recipes” to select under different circumstances.\nThese recipes are for “rational” problems (a problem as a result of a change) as well as for creative problems (a new situation or opportunity). \n\nIt is divided up into five sections:\nThe Stages and Tasks of Problem Solving\nTargeting\nIdea Generating\nDecision Making\nImplementing\n\n \nRegistration Instructions:  \n1.

SUMMARY:Medium Voltage Cable Splicing and Termination with Insulation and Hi-Pot Testing
DESCRIPTION:Click here to REGISTER \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION: \nThe course aims to enhance your knowledge about proper installation of high-voltage cable splices and terminations. Installing and testing cables correctly can ensure an increased life and value for your cables and is therefore important in increasing the longevity of your investment. Any technicians\, electrical engineers\, and electricians that does installation and maintenance as well as trouble shooting of power cables will benefit from this course. \nThe Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) based in New York shares that inadequate testing and installation prior to initiating cable splices and termination are the main reasons for failures. However\, despite its importance\, cable splicing and testing professionals have dwindled in numbers over the past years. With a steady demand for trained professionals\, knowledge in this area is definitely an advantage for any electrical professional. \nCOURSE OBJECTIVES: \n\nUnderstand and explain the components\, construction\, and structure of high-voltage cables.\nDifferentiate different cable types and their varying applications.\nLearn to properly prepare cables for splicing by using hand tools\, solvents\, and abrasives.\nLearn and identify causes of failures in splices and termination.\nKnow the procedures relevant to OSHA safety requirements in relation to splices and termination.\n\n  \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND: \n\nAny technicians\, electrical engineers\, and electricians that does installation and maintenance as well as troubleshooting of high voltage power cables.\n\nCOURSE OUTLINE \nDAY  1 \n\nIntroduction\nUnderground Cables\n\n\nCable construction\nTypes of power cables\nCable configurations\nCable standards\n\n\nSplicing Theory\n\n\nDefinition of cable splice\nFunctions of high voltage splice\nSplice anatomy\nIndustry standards in cable jointing\nCable splicing technologies\n\n\nTermination Theory\n\n\nWhat is cable termination\nCable termination classifications\nStress control\nTypes of insulation\nCable termination industry standards\nCable termination technologies\n\nDAY  2 \n\nTools for splicing and termination Hands-on\n\nCable preparation\nCable splicing\nCable termination\n\n\n\n \n  \n  \n  \n  \nRegistration Instructions:  \n1.
