Steam System Specialist Level Three Training
Overview: Steam Generation/Boilers/Turbines

Steam System Specialist Level Three Training is an exciting three-day course. Steam System Training Level Three is for the individuals who have passed Steam System Level One and Steam System Level Two training. Additionally, the class may be available to individuals who possess advanced steam system knowledge and want to take the next step to enhance their steam system skills.

Steam System Specialist Level Three course content focuses specifically on steam generation equipment and associated components. The steam teams will be designing a boiler plant including accessory components (turbines, deaerator, etc.). The steam teams will review bids from various vendors offering to supply the boiler plant equipment.

This program is a tremendous learning experience and is essential for anyone involved in the design or procurement process of steam boilers or associated components.

As with each of the courses, the unique Steam Group Concept is used during the class. The attendees work in teams of two or three. The team concept has been proven to enhance the experience by permitting a more conducive learning environment.

During the program, our instructors will teach and illustrate true steam system principals. The teams will use and reference CAD prints of an actual steam system operation while completing tasks to practice and demonstrate their acquired knowledge. This ensures maximized comprehension of the training course.

The Steam Group Concept is used to ensure maximized comprehension of the training material.
