Maintenance Manager Course
24-hours of Information & Instruction

This is a general management seminar designed to offer college-level management training to the Maintenance Manager and their staff that have reached their levels of leadership by way of coming up through the "tool box". 

These highly competent technical professionals usually have had unlimited access to technical knowledge but almost no access to the managerial training needed for the leadership, management , and marketing skills needed to deliver maintenance assistance to internal and/or external customers. This course of instruction is designed to add management skills to the significant technical skills that have put them in positions of leadership. 

This course consists of 24-hours of classroom instruction. It is offered in three 8-hour sessions, four 6-hour sessions, or six 4-hour sessions. The purpose of this training is to teach maintenance staff to better communicate with the people in the supporting departments such as the Accounting, Purchasing, Parts, and Operations Departments how to apply this new information to create a smooth running maintenance program that will improve the service to the end user.

This syllabus is targeted to the Maintenance Manager and Foremen, Operations Manager, Budget Manager, Parts Manager, and other supporting departments and is intended to demonstrate how improved cooperation can improve efficiency in asset maintenance.
