Intermediate Course On Railways Application On EMC
12 Hours
Get certificate accredited by CPD(UK)
Pre-Recorded

To train the participant on the dynamics of electro magnetic interference and their mitigations in railway applications

The course is of 12-hour durations delivered through three 4-hour sessions.
Course is delivered by Mr Stuart Charles, Intellex’s tutor, delivered live remotely through MS Teams sessions

The course has been designed to demonstrate dynamics of Electro Magnetic Interference and how mitigations reduce its impact. By understanding the dynamics of EMI engineers can design EMC compliant designs, know how to test to detect any EMI as well as to understand the sources and risks of EMI in a railway environment

The course is written for engineers and managers who want to understand the risk, sources and dynamics of EMI is detail to ensure that EMC is successfully designed into a project. Since this course simplifies the concept of EMC this is also suitable for railway operators and infrastructure regulators.

RAMS engineer,Knorr Bremse

The course gave my a view of the "bigger picture" of railway RAMS as in my day to day work I only work with the HVAC subsystem, specially related to Safety and Assurance. Also I've learned about techniques for relaiblity calculations which I have not used until now. Definitely the course increased my knowledge and has helped meto have a critical eye and to have a bigger context in my daily work as a RAMS engineer.

Very good and very demanding, especially the second part

Syed Irfan Ali
RAMS Engineer

The course offered a comprehensive and engaging learning experience, equipping participants with a strong foundation in RAMS principles. The course capitalized on expert instruction, interactive learning, and practical examples to foster a well-rounded understanding of these critical concepts. With a few enhancements, the course has the potential to become an even more invaluable resource for individuals seeking to excel in RAMS engineering across rail industry.

It is well planned course.

Yadhu Krishnan. R. Nair
RAMS Engineer

The Certificate Course in Railway RAMS concepts and applications was incredibly informative! I had limited knowledge about these concepts before, but this course provided me with a comprehensive understanding. It was a great learning experience, and I feel more equipped to contribute effectively in the field. Especially, the tutors were very supportive and their guidance on each module was very useful to understand the practical implications

MD.Nasim Siddiqui
Senior Commissioning Engineer,Bechtel Corporation

I have thoroughly enjoyed the training course demonstrated by Intellex. It taught me to think outside the box & execute creative solutions on the spot. This course help me to get versatile knowledge about RAMS and it's application and correlate with my current project (Riyadh Metro Project Saudi Arabia) I am looking forward in future for more courses with Intellex institute and recommend to my friends and colleagues.
