Overview
This 9-day programme provides a comprehensive pathway to the IAM Diploma in Asset Management, combining the 4-day IAM Certificate course with the 5-day IAM Diploma course.
The IAM Diploma examination covers 12 modules, including the five modules covered at Certificate level. Delegates who have previously completed the IAM Certificate in Asset Management do not need to attend the Certificate course again and can progress directly to the 5-day IAM Diploma course, covering the remaining Diploma modules.
For delegates completing the full programme, the 4-day IAM Certificate course provides a solid grounding in the core principles of Asset Management, followed by the 5-day IAM Diploma course, which covers the advanced modules required for the IAM Diploma qualification.
This intensive programme provides in-depth coverage of Asset Management principles, practices and their application. The curriculum is aligned with asset management standards, including PAS 55 and ISO 55000, and the GFMAM Asset Management Landscape, preparing delegates to sit the IAM Diploma in Asset Management examination.
Participant Profile
This programme is designed for experienced practitioners with industrial or infrastructure Asset Management responsibilities, senior managers in asset-intensive organisations, professionals preparing for specialist or leadership roles in Asset Management, and experienced professionals from a range of disciplines where the performance of physical assets has a significant impact on organisational performance.
Delegates who have previously completed the IAM Certificate can attend the 5-day Diploma course without repeating the Certificate course.
For those who have previously completed the Certificate, ESS recommends attending the Certificate refresher webinars covering Modules 1 to 5 before the Diploma course. These two 3-hour online sessions provide an opportunity to refresh existing knowledge before progressing to the advanced Diploma modules.
