ROV training in partnership with UHI North, West and Hebrides
We’ve joined with UHI North, West and Hebrides to develop and deliver a new, industry-aligned course to equip students with the essential technical knowledge and career access to enter the fast-growing subsea and offshore sectors.
The course provides foundational knowledge and hands-on experience in the core systems that power and control modern subsea ROVs. The training focuses on three primary technical domains: Electrical Systems, Hydraulic Systems, and Networking/Data Communications.
By the end of this program, participants will have the skills needed to support, maintain, and troubleshoot core ROV systems in line with IMCA requirements. There will be written exams testing theory along with practical assessments involving fault finding and system interpretation.
Learning objectives include:
■ Understanding of ROV industry
■ Types of ROVs
■ Career progression
■ Understand the basic principles of electricity, fluid power, and data transmission
■ Identify and describe key components within ROV systems
■ Interpret schematics and system diagrams
■ Perform basic fault-finding and troubleshooting procedures
■ Perform basic manoeuvring, depth control, and station-keeping of a Seaeye Falcon ROV
■ Understand key practices of a safe working environment
■ Fundamental understanding of planned maintenance procedures
The ROV industry offers a variety of roles from piloting and maintaining the vehicles to developing new technologies and you’ll be joining a sector that is rapidly evolving, offering a wide range of dynamic and engaging career opportunities.
