About Ashdale Industrial Control Training Courses Venue The standard courses are normally carried out at Ashdale Engineering's own premises in Belfast where we have a dedicated training room. See Map on page 14. However, we also offer the flexibility of on-site training at your facility. Format of Training Although some of the training will require presentations, we aim to break these up as much as possible with hands on practical use of the Hardware and the relevant programming software. We will have one computer and set of hardware between two students. Ashdale courses are planned and presented under our ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System and we are also recognised as a Mitsubishi Electric "Centre of Technical Excellence". We are sure you will find these courses practical, technically useful and hopefully an enjoyable way of learning about industrial technology. Group Size Up to 10 delegates, with a minimum of 4 for Ashdale based courses. On site courses consist of up to 6 delegates. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis either on receipt of a booking form or confirmation order. Food Refreshments are available throughout the day. Lunch is included in the price of the course. Materials All necessary training materials like pens, note paper, course notes etc are supplied by Ashdale. A completion certificate is issued at the end of the course. Courses start at 9.00 and finish at approximately 4.30pm.
