Using a blend of scenario based exercises and group discussion, the course content enables delegates to: • Identify relevant standards to prioritise defects • Describe the true intent of each relevant standard • Describe the process for managing defects found during preventative and corrective maintenance • Describe responsibilities when managing and prioritising defects • Identify the mitigating actions to be taken in circumstances when standards cannot be met within the specified time-frame for completion. The course requires one elearning course to be completed prior to attending.
