Training Courses

ETA provide a range of modular training courses focussing on cable engineering. Courses may be provided at client or ETA premises. Courses are run by experienced instructors with excellent technical and practical background in the subjects. Course materials include visuals and lecture notes, with an emphasis on worked examples of typical cable lay problems. On completion of the courses the students will have a sound grounding in cable engineering, enabling rapid progression to supervision of cable laying operations. Students are provided with course manuals in electronic and optionally hard copy formats, and with course certification. In addition to 'classroom' training, documentation and support can be provided for remote learning.

Where required, ETA staff are available to support course graduates during cable laying projects as on-board advisors, or simply to assist with and verify cable lay plans.

Whilst our existing courses focus on cable engineering, we can produce bespoke courses in related topics to suit client requirements.
