1 Day Webinar & 1 Day Practical at the NFPC
Course aims/who is it for?
These WEBINAR MODULES are designed to provide a refresher for existing technical staff, a start point for non-technical staff and those involved with Fluid Power at the early stage of their working careers. They will provide a general understanding of the use of hydraulics and the components parts involved in the construction of a simple system. Knowledge gained is at a basic level and great emphasis will be placed on safe working practices.

Course Introduction
We welcome you to attend our online TECHNICAL WEBINARS presented by NFPC Training Engineers with a vast knowledge and experience involved in the maintenance and management of FLUID POWER SYTEMS. Each Module will be presented online via ZOOM and Candidate Group numbers per session will be limited to a maximum of 8 and hosted NFPC Training Engineers.
