SUMMARY:Valve Basics Seminar & Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:NOW OFFERING TWO 1.5-DAY COURSES! \n\nValves 101: Industrial Valves & Materials\nValves 201: Control Valves\, Automation and Special Applications\n\nHOUSTON AREA SAFETY COUNCIL \nPASADENA\, TX \nMore than 2\,000 people have taken one of VMA’s highly rated Valve Basics courses since the program was introduced in 2009. During the past decade\, our Valves\, Actuators & Controls 101 has expanded dramatically. What began as a 1-day course became 2 days\, and then recently has included three full days of education & training. Based on feedback from attendees\, we are modifying the curriculum to create two separate courses\, each lasting one-and-a-half days. \nThe first course\, Industrial Valves & Materials\, will cover the type of basic information that everyone in the industry should know—perfect for those who are very new to working with valves. The 101 course includes an overview of the industry\, as well as lessons on multi-turn\, check\, plug\, ball and butterfly\, pressure relief valves and materials. \nThe more complex flow control products that employ electronics and automation will be covered in in the 201 course: Control Valves\, Automation and Special Applications.  \nAs in the past\, each event includes a hands-on learning experience—the Valve Petting Zoo—that focuses on products covered in the classroom portion of the program . \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND? \nThis course was created specifically for newcomers to the industry so it is ideally suited for recent graduates and engineers in the early stages of their careers. In addition\, those who understand the basics of mechanical valves can expand their knowledge by attending the Electric portion of the program. Both courses can be taken\, or attendees can choose to attend one or another. \nAttendees typically include: \n\nA variety of professionals employed at plants and facilities that use or work with valves\, actuators and controls\nMore experienced professionals with knowledge of one specific product type but in need of an overview of the entire spectrum of valves\, actuators and controls.\nNew employees at valve\, actuator and control companies\nPersonnel from EPC or AEC firms who are involved with specifying valves\nDistributors and manufacturers’ reps who sell these products\nCompanies that provide supplies and services to the industry\nAnd anyone who could use a refresher course on valves\, actuators and controls!\n\nThe Valve Basics course has been well-received by upper-level mechanical engineering students who have attended previous seminars. Their participation is made possible by scholarships from association members and others interested in supporting valve training for the next generation. \nWHERE IS THE COURSE HELD? \nTo provide a large space in which to conduct our hands-on learning experience\, this event is being held at the Houston Area Safety Council (5213 Center Street\, Pasadena\, TX 77505). The council has a state-of-the-art training facility and abundant workshop space where products for the “Valve Petting Zoo” can be displayed\, from large to small\, from mechanical to electric. \nTABLETOP EXHIBITS \nThe Valve Basics event also includes a tabletop event. The schedule is still being worked out and we’ll post updated information as soon as it is available. \nWHO SHOULD EXHIBIT? \n\nU.S. or Canadian companies that sell or provide services to valve\, actuator and control manufacturers and end users of those products or services.\nNon-member manufacturers\, suppliers and distributor/channel partners may register\, but only if they are U.S. or Canadian based and would qualify for VMA or VRC membership.\n\nIf you are not sure whether your company qualifies\, please contact Abby Brown before registering.

SUMMARY:Essentials of Asset Management & ISO 5500x
DESCRIPTION:How can you improve the performance of your asset portfolio? Learn how to identify and treat asset risks? Make financially-optimized asset management decisions? If so\, this course is for you. This course will give you the skills needed to implement holistic and sustainable asset management practices in your organization. \n\n\nOver the last few years\, the challenges of managing physical assets have grown. Asset-intensive companies are faced with aging assets\, hyper-competitive markets\, change-resistive culture\, unpreparedness for digital-ready world\, climate change\, and ever-tightening constraints on funding. \nToday’s asset managers must integrate asset\, business\, risk and quality management principles to strategically manage their organization’s assets. The modern asset manager focuses on integrated business processes that harmonize asset information across organizational silos to make financially-optimized asset management decisions. The ISO 5500x family of standards provides guidelines for organizations to develop sustainable asset management approaches and be able to respond appropriately to constraints and opportunities within their operating contexts. \nThis course focuses on global best-in-class practices to holistically manage assets and optimize levels of service over their life cycles. The course is anchored on three pillars\, asset performance\, asset risk management and business/financial management. The course content is mapped to the ISO 5500x family of standards and the Global Forum on Maintenance and Asset Management (GFMAM’s) Asset Management Landscape. The course is designed to be multi-disciplinary\, in order to foster effective cross-functional team approach when participants return to their workplaces. \nParticipants will receive a Certificate of Completion on successful completion of the course. \nRegister
