Practical, In Depth, Concise Vibration Analysis Training since 1966
Update believes that Vibration can be understood and utilized by anyone, regardless of educational background. We strive to provide the practical information that students NEED to know in a format that is both easy to understand and useful from the start. Over the last 50 years we have worked with industry giants and small businesses alike to ensure that their maintenance practices are as precise, efficient and reliable as possible.
Course Formats:
-
Public Seminars
- Our public seminars are open to anyone and everyone. We typically start with a “core group” of around 3-7 people interested in attending a specific training. We work with that group to establish a location and date for the training. Update then fills the remaining slots using our network of contacts. This format is an excellent option for everyone, and we offer group discounts starting at the 2nd person.
-
Private InHouse or Onsite Seminars
- Our InHouse or Onsite seminars are hosted privately by companies. Typically, we establish a location, date and an initial rate for the group. Groups are normally between 12 and 18 people, but we have seen groups as small as 5 and as large as 34. An additional rate is then established for any additional attendees that should present themselves following the initial offering. Hosting companies provide a venue for the seminar.
-
REMOTE Training- Live, Online
- Our REMOTE training option is very unique, in that it completely eliminates any need for travel. We offer this format for our Level 1 & 2 Vibration courses, Vibration Understanding for Mangers and Supervisors, and Introduction to Vibration ONLY. REMOTE courses are twice as long as a typical course. The reason for this is our scheduling. The training sessions are a half day, either in the morning or the afternoon. This way, attendees can work half a day and train half a day to minimize the impact of their absence. We task attendees to this course to take readings on assets, which are then used in the course as learning material. The result of all of this is a VERY convenient, very effective (cost and otherwise) training.
