Hourly Schedule

Day 1 - Fundamentals

9.00am - 10.30am
BAS
We start with current flow fundamentals, from electrons up, with revision of units and symbols for electricity, then understanding basic electrical circuits using analogies.
10.45am - 12.40pm
FLT
We help you to develop your basis troubleshooting toolkit for modern electrical & electronic systems.
1.15pmpm - 4.30pm
OHM
Enhance your deeper circuit understanding by applying basic electrical measurements rigorously. With hands-on, custom practical (Didactic 01) after mid-afternoon break. Like the famous Sherlock Holmes, we make you very curious about current.

Day 2 - Intermediate

9am - 10.30am
BAT
We take an in depth look at batteries, chargers and inverters. And some of the latest development in hybrid systems
10.45AM - 12.30PM
DCS
How do distributed controls work on board; with introduction to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs).
1.15PM - 4.30PM
GEN-A
Shore power; an introduction to single phase and three phase systems. With practical measurements by guided video instruction, after mid-afternoon break.

DAY 3 - Proficient

9.am - 10.30am
HYD
We delve into hydraulic controls for large sailing vessels. A big subject with big powers and enormous loads!
10.45am - 12.30pm
DRV
Drives primer: Variable frequency drives vs. soft starters
1.15pm - 4.30pm
GEN-B
In this second big module on generators, we look in depth at the controls and power management systems. With practical video training of multiple generator set-up, from synchronisation through to load-sharing.

Day 4 - Advanced

9am - 10.30am
SEN
With this primer on measurement methods and sensor interfacing you’ll be equipped to understand almost 99% of sensors found on the modern superyacht.
10.45am - 12.30pm
AMS
Now you’ll be ready to deeply understand Alarm Monitoring (& control) Systems in this module, bringing together much content from the previous modules
1.15pm - 4.30pm
PLC
Programmable Logic Controllers, the biggest module. You’ll understand purpose and functions on board and be able to speak their language, with a guided practical (Didactic 02) to PLC graphical programming.
