Learning Objectives
Identify the tools and techniques associated with welding-related fabrication and quality control.
Point out practical aspects of fabrication and inspection which should be taken into consideration in the design of equipment.
Monitor fabrication and erection plans and incorporate some quality control requirements into contractual documents.
Achieve economical compliance with ASME, AWS and API Standards when writing and qualifying welding and brazing procedures.
Gain insights into ASME Code, AWS and API Standards to facilitate interpreting, understanding and complying with Standards.
Review welding processes, common variables and basic welding metallurgy.
Find out how to qualify welders and brazers the easy way.
Writing and qualifying welding procedures that comply with ASME Code, AWS and API Standards with an in-depth understanding of the requirements.
Understand and examine the requirements for welder and operator qualification in detail and in an easy way.
Select test coupons to minimize overall cost of qualification and writing WPSs so that optimum flexibility is achieved

What do Al-Khobraa mechanical, maintenance and reliability courses cover?
The portfolio covers reliability-centred maintenance (RCM), preventive and predictive maintenance, condition monitoring and vibration analysis, root cause failure analysis, rotating and static equipment, asset management and maintenance planning — including preparation for the CMRP (Certified Maintenance & Reliability Professional) credential.
Who should attend a mechanical, maintenance or reliability course?
These courses suit maintenance and reliability engineers, maintenance planners and schedulers, mechanical and rotating-equipment technicians and supervisors, condition-monitoring analysts, asset and plant managers, and operations staff accountable for equipment availability.
How long are mechanical, maintenance and reliability courses, and where are they held?
Most Al-Khobraa mechanical, maintenance and reliability courses run over 5 days. The exact duration, dates and city for this course are listed in the dates section on this page. Public sessions run across Saudi Arabia — Riyadh, Jeddah, Al-Khobar, Jubail and Yanbu — as well as regional and international venues, with live virtual classrooms available on request.
What certificate will I receive?
Delegates who complete the course receive an Al-Khobraa certificate of completion, issued by a Saudi-registered training provider. Al-Khobraa also delivers internationally accredited programmes; where a course carries an external awarding body such as PMI, CIPS, ILM or IOSH, that body is named on the course's own page.
Can mechanical, maintenance and reliability training be delivered in-house for our team?
Yes. Any Al-Khobraa mechanical, maintenance and reliability course can be delivered in-house at your own premises anywhere in Saudi Arabia or the GCC, with the content, dates and language of delivery tailored to your team.
