Software Workshops

Chances are your formal university education didn’t fully prepare you for the real world application of turbomachinery design. The foundation is usually there (fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, etc.) but applying it effectively on the job usually requires some extra help. On-the-job training is one method, but there are other resources available to help you along. At Concepts NREC we specialize in providing advanced education and technology to the turbomachinery industry. There are several options available for your professional improvement.

Ongoing education is a reality for most professionals. The training requirements are usually set by employers or professional associations with the goal of keeping employees and members up to date with the latest technologies, theories, and/or tools available in the industry. Numerous disciplines require Continuing Education Units (CEUs) to maintain certifications, including engineers, educators, nurses, and many others. Increasingly, employers are specifying a professional development goal as part of their employee’s yearly review. Those reviews impact your continued employment, your salary and your career path.

Yes, you read that right. Learnt. It’s in the dictionary; look it up if you don’t believe me. I believe it’s one of those words that came over on the Mayflower and found its way into Webster’s early version of spell-check. I was exposed to this word through a group of Englishmen in the Engineering group here. One of those Englishmen, Colin Osborne, has been a significant contributor to our robust “Lessons Learnt” database throughout his decades-long career here at Concepts NREC. If you don’t have a “Lessons Learnt” database at your company, I suggest you start one right away.
