The next in-take for the above courses start in September 2005 - numbers are limited. For more details on any of the above courses, please complete the request for information form or email hugo@logis-tech.co.uk. Post-graduate engineering awards scholarships available via the IEE.

INDUSTRIAL

All aspects of NVQ/SVQ in-house/on site technical training courses (EMTA - Engineering Marine Training Authority accredited) in many engineering disciplines can be delivered.

COMMERCIAL

Specialised customised commercial courses in a wide variety of technical areas deliveried by subject specialists to a companies specific requirements. (SQA credits for single units {HNC level} may be awarded in some instances).

Company Scheme

If a company wishes to enrol a number of delegates (minimum 5) on any one particular Higher National module (fully accredited by a SQA credit). This course can be taken over 2 full consecutive days or 4 consecutive evenings. The cost of the complete HN (Higher National) course is £350.00 per delegate (price based on 10 delegates).

This fee of £350.00 per delegate includes the registration fee with SQA, a A4 manual of well written professionally finished set of study notes on the subject material, marking of the 4 TMAs (Tutor marked assignments) and 2 day course attendance fee (lunch, teas, included). For a less/greater number of delegates and if the course is in-house, the above cost is greatly reduced per delegate.

A typical example of a 2 day programme for a Higher National Unit is available by linking to "2 - Day HN Engineering Courses" for perusal. For the 2 day HN programmes a SQA qualification credit is obtained.

More Advanced (Honours degree level) and Specialised (Masters degree level) courses are also available and are also accredited by the appropriate University if the subject material falls within one of the existing MSc programmes.

Please inquire for more details on these types of specialised programme courses stating the module or subject of interest and any specific needs and requirements of subject material for your company. In many cases, within a module, particular emphasis can be placed in specific specialised areas, if so desired to suit your company.
