Lifelong Learning and Expert Solutions at UDST

CPE delivers a comprehensive selection of engineering-focused Continuing and Professional Education (CPE) programs that equip participants with essential technical skills, practical knowledge, and a deep understanding of industry standards. Designed to meet the needs of technicians, operators, engineers, and industry professionals, these programs emphasize hands-on learning, problem-solving, and safety in industrial settings. Participants gain expertise in areas such as mechanical systems, electrical safety, instrumentation, materials and metallurgy, maintenance procedures, and process optimization. The courses also promote a broader understanding of quality assurance, risk assessment, and leadership within engineering environments. With a strong applied learning approach and real-world relevance, CPE’s engineering training prepares learners to contribute effectively to operational excellence, innovation, and workplace safety across a wide range of industrial sectors.

Our Courses

This course covers the fundamental principles of Hydraulics and system design, along with an exploration of its components. It provides a brief introduction to Pneumatics, specifically focusing on compressors, and focuses on Hydraulics. During the laboratory component of this course, participants engage in various experiments centered around diverse components such as Valves, Motors, and Accumulators.

This course is intended to provide information on general electrical safety principles and best practices for all employees in the course of work, research and activities where electrical hazards exist. Although one can take several approaches to understanding the function of health and safety programs, for the purpose of this general Electrical Safety course, we will differentiate between safety hazards and health hazards. This course is suitable for all non-electrical plant personnel that interact with electrical equipment and systems in performing the routine tasks of their job (technicians, operators, safety officers, etc.).

This course presents an overview of the fundamentals of the oil and gas industry including the production of oil and gas, from initial exploration to final transport, industry operations, and factors that impact oil and gas markets. After every lesson, learners will complete short assessment to test their newly acquired knowledge and participate in group discussion

This course provides comprehensive training on the safe use, maintenance, and handling of hand and power tools in an engineering environment. It develops participants’ ability to identify, select, and maintain hand tools properly, emphasizing safe handling techniques to prevent accidents and injuries. Identification of the risks associated with tool uses and implementing best practices were in place for the trainee to recognize the importance of safety. At the end of the training participants can confidently oper ate hand tools and maintain safe working environment.

This comprehensive program equips participants with the essential skills for safely handling of hazardous chemicals while conducting effective warehouse site inspections. Through a series of case studies, participants assess their ability to apply safety protocols, identify potential hazards, and evaluate emergency response plans. The course guides participants in analyzing and improving current safety practices, enabling them to develop preventive measures for chemical exposure, implement proper handling techniques, and manage chemical storage and waste disposal safely.

This course introduces participants to the basic principles of solar energy design and applications. It addresses concepts related to the operation of various photovoltaic (PV) system components, including DC-DC converter, tracking algorithms for maximum power point, and the interconnected network for delivering electricity from producers to consumers. The course will extend the participants’ awareness of the fundamentals of solar energy conversion, photovoltaic systems, and the analysis of tracking the maximum power-point by applying maximum PowerPoint tracking (MPPT) algorithm tech.

The course focuses on the electrical fundamentals of hazardous area classification, and identification of the right equipment specification for each zoning system. Participants are to obtain key competences in observing and managing Codes, Standards, and Practices implemented within Hazardous Areas. Interpretation of protective measurements and specifications within the zoning systems is considered a core during the participants’ training.

This course introduces participants to the key principles of process safety and its management. The participants are to explore the key factors influencing process safety, hazards associated with a process plant and how risks are identified, managed, and controlled. Further, participants are expected to get acquainted with the key process safety requirements at each stage in the life cycle of a process plant and that is from design conceptualization to decommissioning. To gain a deeper understanding of process safety elements, various case studies will be introduced. Additionally, the participants will watch safety incident videos and will work in groups to identify the lack of process safety elements that lead to the incidents. Furthermore, participants will work on developing a framework incorporating the elements of the risk-based process safety.

Quality assurance in Mechanical operation and production of units is essential, particularly for Good Manufacturing Practice and sustaining a competitive advantage over others. This course is designed to introduce the concepts, philosophy, and application of Total Quality Management (TQM) and other contemporary systems to participants. Emphasis is made on the integration of TQM philosophy into the working and production processes. Development of quality assurance procedures and documentation are discussed referring to existing industry quality assurance specifications at both national and international levels. Through lectures, group discussions, and student presentations, participants are to conceptualize quality assurance principles, analyze the existing industry standards and audit the current quality assurance principles.

This qualification is designed for anyone who has responsibilities for managing environmental issues as part of their work. The qualification is designed to be globally relevant and benefit companies in all industry sectors who are seeking to implement effective environmental management systems, increase positive environmental impacts, and reduce negative environmental impacts.

The NEBOSH Health and Safety at Work Award is an introductory level qualification that looks at health and safety in the workplace. It is suitable for anyone who needs to understand the principles of health and safety as part of their job; this would include team leaders and supervisors, HR professionals, facilities managers and those training young people in a working environment.

This is a globally recognized qualification designed to provide participants with essential knowledge and skills to manage workplace health and safety effectively. The course covers key topics such as hazard identification, risk assessment and control, as well as the legal requirements for health and safety management. It is ideal for individuals seeking to enhance their competency in ensuring safe working environments, making it highly relevant across various industries. Successful completion of the course equips learners to apply best practices in occupational health and safety, contributing to reduced workplace risks and improved organizational safety standards.

This course equips learners with the skills to conduct accident investigations, develop risk control plans and participate in team investigations for major incidents. It is tailored for managers, supervisors, HSE advocates, union representatives and those aspiring to become health and safety professionals.

This course aims to provide learners with the knowledge to identify, evaluate and mitigate manual handling risks within their organization. It is ideal for employers and employee representatives looking to initiate manual handling risk assessment and control in their company. Additionally, it benefits those seeking more comprehensive and formal training on the topic.
