Know how to carry out
Portable Appliance Testing but not sure how to handle result recording, or the
management of your, or your customer's assets? Due to popular demand we
have introduced a range of training courses for Seaward and SimplyPats Portable Appliance Testing
Software.
These one day courses are
designed to help you get the most from your software, your PAT Tester and
ancillary equipment, and save you time and money, as well as improve the
performance of your PAT
Testing Business, leading to improved customer service.
InTuition accept
a maximum of 6 candidates on each software course, which enables us to give attention to individuals. We
also provide Laptops, and Software, for every candidate to practise with.
Candidates can also bring their own software and equipment - see below*
A Certificate of Attendance

Why use PAT Testing Software?
PAT Testing Software automates the task of
scheduling retests and speeds up result recording and the production of
reports. If you only have
around say 200 items to test then a paper management system may suffice, but
you can spend more time recording the data than actually testing the
equipment.
Why
attend our PAT Testing Software Course?
Being
able to understand and fully utilise your PAT Testing Software will save you
time and money and make you more efficient. Your business reputation
will gain from giving a more professional service to your customers. You
could soon save the price of the course by making your PAT Testing business
more cost-effective.
Not
bought your software yet?
Not sure which to buy? These courses
give you the chance to try out your preferred software before you buy, as
well as training you how to use it. With the cost of PAT
Testing Software starting at around £350 + VAT, it can save you making an
expensive mistake.
What
type of software is covered in your courses?
Currently,
we train the Seaward range of software (PatGuard Lite®,
PaTGuard Pro®
and PatGuard Elite®),
and RSR Systems' SimplyPats®,
as these are the ones we are asked about the most often. We may add
Robin's PowerPat Plus®
later, if we
get sufficient demand.
What
do I need?
We provide
everything that you will need on the day (see
What's Included?).
Every candidate has the use of a laptop and software, a PAT tester to
download/upload to, and access to a printer to produce reports.
No previous knowledge of the Software is required as the training courses are
fully comprehensive. They are suitable for beginners, with only basic
or no knowledge of their software, or for those already working in the PAT
Testing field wishing to upgrade their test equipment and working methods.
To get the best from your
software it is highly recommended that you already hold a Certificate of
Competence in Portable Appliance Testing. We offer a package deal if
you book a PAT testing Course at the same time as the Software Course. Save
£30 - see
below for details
*Delegates are also welcome to bring their own laptop, PAT Tester and
software. Please note: although the trainer can help you resolve downloading
problems, show you how to set up your software etc, they do not have time
during the course to resolve any PC problems, or difficulties with Windows®
software
etc, as this would not be fair on the other candidates.
See below for course dates and venues.
