This programme seamlessly integrates theoretical understanding with hands-on application in the field of industrial asset management, enhanced by digitalisation and associated tools. Participants will explore the core concepts of digital asset measurement and management, including the setup and configuration of CMMS systems – covering asset hierarchy, work order planning, preventive maintenance scheduling, and data standardisation. These principles will then be applied in immersive, scenario-based workshops designed to reflect real-world industrial environments.

The Certificate in Asset Management Digitalisation is designed to enable learners to:
  • Develop their understanding of the principles of asset management and its essential components.
  • Integrate legacy maintenance and device data into a modern digital asset management framework.
  • Interpret EAM (Enterprise Asset Management)/CMMS (Computerised Maintenance Management System) data to analyse fault conditions and generate informed decisions.
  • Utilise configuration and data-presentation tools within EAM/CMMS environments.
  • Apply strategic thinking and asset life cycle perspectives.
  • Demonstrate deployment of Asset Management.

The QQI-accredited Certificate in Asset Management Digitalisation is a part-time programme, typically, delivered over 4 – 6 weeks (4-days in-class, 5 on-line evening sessions).

This award of 5 ECTS credits is designed to meet the industry skills shortage of qualified/workforce in the sector of Asset Management Digitalisation in manufacturing and service industries, where business has a requirement to upskill employees, and/or are driven by efficiencies, quality assurance, compliance, industry regulations and safety.

The Certificate in Asset Management Digitalisation programme is designed to equip those working in industry and services with the theoretical knowledge and practical skills in deploying integrated digital asset management system. The programme advances the education, training, and development of learners, to facilitate their working and career progression within industry. The programme has been developed for those seeking employment or career mobility, or those employed seeking to advance and/or add skills to improve performance with enhanced digital transformation skills.

The objectives of this programme are to:

  • Support learners seeking to expand their skill and qualification to facilitate them to work in manufacturing or service industry,
  • Facilitate those currently working within the sector seeking to develop their technical skills and improve performance or seek career advancement by developing their skills and gaining an approved qualification in Asset Management Digitalisation
  • Enable those who are seeking employment or career mobility and are looking to expand their skills and qualifications to make them industry relevant, ready, and attractive.

On successful completion of this course learners can:

  1. Define the principles of asset management and identify its key components, including the integration of legacy systems within modern digital frameworks.
  2. Set up and configure CMMS/EAM systems, including asset hierarchies, work order workflows, and scheduling parameters, with a focus on data structure and integrity to support reliability engineering, fault analysis, and informed decision-making.
  3. Use digital tools and configuration strategies within asset management systems to optimise data presentation and reduce recurring operational problems.
  4. Apply life cycle and strategic asset management approaches to evaluate investment options while addressing ethical considerations, risks, and potential system biases
  • Introduction to Asset Management
  • Asset Management Principles & Frameworks
  • Asset Management Policy and Strategy
  • Asset Hierarchies, Work Order Workflows, Scheduling Parameters, Fault Analysis Tracking
  • Lifecycle Asset Management
  • Tools, Implementation & Practical Application
  • Risk Management in Asset Management
  • Implementing an Asset Management System

The Certificate in Asset Management Digitalisation comprises 5 ECTS credits. It is primarily intended as a standalone award, however progression opportunities are available as follows.

 

Higher National Certificate in Manufacturing Engineering, Griffith College Limerick

Graduates from the Certificate in Asset Management Digitalization programme may be eligible to join the BTEC Higher National Certificate in Manufacturing Engineering. This one-year part-time HNC programme delivers knowledge and skills in a range of specialist areas of manufacturing engineering and is suited to those who would like a career in the manufacturing/biopharma and the medical devices industries or those who want to upskill in this area.

Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial and Systems Engineering, Griffith College

The QQI-accredited Bachelor of Engineering in Industrial and Systems Engineering, NFQ level 7 is a one-year part-time (post-higher certificate in engineering or cognate discipline) that provides key competencies in the areas of industrial and systems engineering and related subjects.

Certificate in Industrial Manufacturing and Maintenance Skills, Griffith College in collaboration with ESS

The QQI-accredited Certificate in Industrial Manufacturing and Maintenance Skills is a one-year part-time programme that provides key knowledge, skills, and competencies in Industrial Manufacturing and Maintenance related subjects.

NFQ Level 6 (plus) engineering programmes within third-level colleges in Ireland

This programme may also facilitate learners’ application for progression to third-level programmes in engineering, science, or cognate discipline.

Entry requirements (if under 23 years) are a minimum of grade O6 / H7 in the Leaving Certificate, or equivalent, in 5 subjects. The subjects must include mathematics and English, Irish or another language.

Mature learners, i.e., applicants over the age of 23, may also apply based on work experience and / or life experience by demonstrating that they have reached the standards of knowledge, skills, and competence. Applicants’ experiential backgrounds are assessed through the submission and review of their CV as part of the application process.

The English language entry requirements for the programme are CEF B2+ or equivalent. Candidates with English language levels below CEF B2+ must first reach this minimum standard before enrolling on the academic programme.

Typical learner profiles include:
• Craft trade and apprenticeship graduates (completion of Phase 4 required) in disciplines such as Electrical, Mechanical/Fitting, or Instrumentation. Other disciplines may be considered based on relevant experience or qualifications.
• Individuals who hold an NFQ Level 6 qualification (or higher) in engineering, electrical, mechanical, process, instrumentation, or a related discipline.
• Technicians, engineers, planners, supervisors, and managers who have maintained and/or managed maintenance programmes as part of a previous, current, or prospective role.
