This practitioner-focused training covers all four CMRT domains: Maintenance Practices, Preventive and Predictive Maintenance, Troubleshooting and Analysis, and Corrective Maintenance. Participants will master essential skills in safe maintenance execution, condition monitoring techniques, diagnostic approaches, and precision installation practices while preparing for CMRT-style assessments.

Designed specifically for maintenance technicians, reliability specialists, planners, supervisors, and multi-skilled staff, this hands-on course builds both foundational knowledge and practical application skills. Over 40% of training time is dedicated to real-world scenarios that maintenance professionals face daily. Jeruel's expert instructors bring 25+ years of industry experience to help participants implement preventive strategies, troubleshoot complex systems, and execute precision maintenance that extends equipment life and reduces downtime.

Learning Objectives

• Master maintenance and reliability fundamentals that keep operations safe. Learn how preventive checks and predictive techniques work together to spot problems before they cause downtime or safety hazards.
• Master safe maintenance practices. Perform activities effectively, manage tools properly, conduct thorough pre-use inspections, and store parts correctly. These habits prevent accidents and extend equipment life.
• Master essential maintenance strategies: prevent failures with scheduled checks, predict issues using condition monitoring, apply proper lubrication techniques, and build effective PM programs that extend equipment life.
• Master systematic troubleshooting techniques to pinpoint problems fast. Apply root cause analysis to prevent recurring issues. Use diagnostic tools to measure and verify your findings. These skills turn complex problems into solvable puzzles.
• Master corrective maintenance techniques that fix equipment properly the first time. Learn precision installation methods and practical strategies that extend equipment life and maximize reliability. These approaches can significantly reduce your Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF).
• Proper documentation and record keeping are essential for maintenance operations. Learn to use maintenance management systems to track repairs, schedule preventive work, and ensure compliance. Good records help identify recurring issues and improve equipment reliability.
• Prepare for your CMRT certification with targeted practice. Our materials align perfectly with all SMRP domains, featuring practice questions, a full mock exam, and competency reviews to build your confidence. Test your knowledge before the real thing.
