The Energy Water Sector Education and Training Authority (EWSETA) has accredited Energy Cybernetics as a provider for its training division, the Energy Training Foundation (EnTF). EnTF is the approved training partner of the US-based Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) for the Southern African region and the training provider for the Southern African Association of Energy Efficiency (SAEE). All its training courses are accredited by ECSA for 2-8 CPD points.
EnTF manager, Izelle Bosman, is positive about the quality of training: “This accreditation gives our organisation the nod that our aims of providing international quality training and qualifications are in-line with the focus of the EWSETA to address the qualification and skills development needs in the energy and water sector in South Africa.”
The EnTF training courses allow trainees to implement improvements within their organisation as soon as they leave the lecture hall. The courses not only equip trainees with the skills and knowledge to find energy savings opportunities, but also teach the basic engineering fundamentals that bring improvements like increased production throughputs, lower maintenance costs, longer equipment life, better investment decision-making and enhanced working conditions.
In Southern Africa the EnTF has trained in excess of 1900 candidates in energy management, energy efficiency, co-generation, carbon reduction management, energy auditing, measurement and verification and the fundamentals of energy engineering. Courses are scheduled from March to November throughout the country.
