From $610 per delegate

Description

This course equips participants with the knowledge and skills to effectively manage energy assets within an organisation. It covers the principles of energy management, asset lifecycle planning, and the implementation of energy efficiency measures to reduce costs and environmental impact.

Learning Outcomes

  • Apply energy management principles to identify and prioritise energy-saving opportunities.
  • Analyse energy consumption data to evaluate asset performance and identify inefficiencies.
  • Design an energy asset management plan that aligns with organisational objectives.
  • Implement energy efficiency measures and monitor their effectiveness.
  • Evaluate the financial and environmental impact of energy asset management decisions.
  • Demonstrate compliance with relevant energy regulations and standards.

Target Audience

This course is designed for facilities managers, energy managers, maintenance supervisors, and operations personnel responsible for the efficient management of energy-consuming assets.

Prerequisites

None — open enrollment.

Course Outline

Day 1: Foundations of Energy Asset Management

Objectives:
• Understand the principles and importance of energy asset management in the South African context
• Identify the key components of an energy asset portfolio and their lifecycle stages
• Apply relevant legislation, standards, and best practices (e.g., ISO 55000, NERSA regulations)
• Conduct basic energy asset condition assessments and risk evaluations
• Develop a simple energy asset register and maintenance plan

Topics:
• Introduction to energy asset management: definitions, scope, and benefits
• Energy asset lifecycle: planning, acquisition, operation, maintenance, and disposal
• Legal and regulatory framework: South African energy sector, NERSA, and ISO 55000
• Energy asset types: generation, transmission, distribution, and end-use equipment
• Asset condition assessment techniques: visual inspection, performance monitoring, and data collection
• Risk management principles: identification, analysis, and mitigation strategies
• Introduction to maintenance strategies: reactive, preventive, predictive, and reliability-centered maintenance
• Developing an asset register and maintenance plan: steps and considerations

Day 2: Strategic Implementation and Optimization

Objectives:
• Apply strategic frameworks for optimizing energy asset performance and cost-effectiveness
• Use data and technology (e.g., CMMS, IoT, SCADA) to support asset management decisions
• Develop and implement an energy asset management policy and strategy aligned with organizational goals
• Evaluate asset performance using key performance indicators (KPIs) and benchmarks
• Plan for asset replacement, decommissioning, and sustainability considerations

Topics:
• Strategic asset management: aligning asset decisions with business objectives
• Performance measurement and benchmarking: KPIs, balanced scorecard, and industry comparisons
• Data-driven decision making: CMMS, IoT, SCADA, and predictive analytics
• Financial aspects: life cycle costing, capital budgeting, and cost-benefit analysis
• Outsourcing and contract management in asset services
• Sustainability and energy efficiency: integrating renewable energy and carbon footprint reduction
• Change management and stakeholder engagement for asset management implementation
• Case studies and best practices in energy asset management from South African industries

Practicals

6 hours of practicals To be conducted online or on-campus or in-house
Overview

The practicals provide hands-on experience in applying key concepts of energy asset management, including asset inspection, data collection, and maintenance planning. Learners will work with real-world scenarios and tools to reinforce theoretical knowledge and develop skills directly applicable to their workplace.

Practical Activities
  • Asset Register and Condition Assessment — Learners will perform a mock asset inspection on provided equipment (or simulations), record condition data, and create an asset register entry. (2h)
  • Maintenance Planning and Risk Analysis — Using a case study, learners will develop a maintenance plan for a set of energy assets, including risk analysis and resource allocation. (2h)
  • Data-Driven Decision Making with CMMS — Learners will use a computerised maintenance management system (CMMS) simulation to input asset data, generate work orders, and analyse performance reports. (2h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total
Component Out of Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored) 100% 30%
Daily Average (multiple choice) 100% 20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice) 100% 50%
Final Total 100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

Certificate of Completion

Awarded to delegates who achieve an overall mark of 50% or higher on the Final Total (Practicals 30% + Daily Average 20% + Final Test 50%).

How it works
  • Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
  • Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
  • You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
  • If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.
Where to find it

Sign in to the LMS, open your dashboard, and your certificates appear under My Certificates. Each entry has a View / Download button and a print option.
