Course Summary
Any organisation involved in the engineering industry will undoubtedly have a strong focus on maintaining high standards of engineering excellence. Engineering excellence refers to productivity and the potential to deliver outstanding results. Many factors and skills contribute to engineering excellence, and without these, any engineering project is almost bound to fail.
To develop engineering excellence, professionals must have a strong skill set and several particular competencies. Some of the most crucial skills are the ability to communicate effectively and work with a range of other professionals and clients. Effective communication ensures that the engineers and the client are both in agreement with the project and eliminates the potential for miscommunications and mistakes.
Furthermore, engineers must be willing and have the opportunity to engage in continuous improvement. This is where the professionals strive to develop their knowledge and practical skills to provide better service, but the business must also provide them with the ability to do so through constructive feedback and training.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the importance of excellence within the role of engineering.
- Explore the typical responsibilities, skills, and competencies of a successful engineer.
- Identify the various roles of an engineer depending on the organisation and how the standard of excellence may vary within them.
- Develop strong communication skills to aid in engaging with clients, shareholders, and other important individuals.
- Recognise personal strengths and weaknesses and continuously strive for improvement.
- Comprehend the different stages of a project and how excellence can be achieved throughout.
- Assess the economics of engineering and determine how to deliver the best ideal results.
This course is designed for anyone within the engineering industry, including project management. It would be most beneficial for:
- Operations Managers
- Senior Engineers
- Project Managers
- Project Engineers
- Planning and Development Directors
- Communication Managers
- Senior Executives
This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review real-world examples of established organisations and highlight their individual approaches to engineering excellence and how these have influenced their success.
The participants will have the opportunity to partake in a variety of learning methods and exercises, including seminars, discussions, video materials and practical activities. This combination of methods will guarantee that the participants are able to fully develop their understanding of the taught content and any related practical skills.
