The case for Maintenance Training

We live in a time of high economic risk. Maintenance is not spared the magnifying glass, as it is one of the bigger contributors of business cost. It thus has to be as efficient as it can be.

And there is no efficiency measure as good as a competent work force. Employing the best maintenance technology, philosophies and techniques can of course do much. But all of these are only as good as the people who drives them, and those who implement their outcomes.

Terotechnica in a nutshell

The Terotechnica Maintenance College is a division of M-Tech Consulting Engineers (Pty) Ltd.

M-Tech was founded as a maintenance consulting company. However, maintenance training became the main activity in 1991. This was after it became clear that industry has a great need for maintenance training.

The Terotechnica Maintenance College has trained thousands of Maintenance Practitioners at different levels in the industrial organisation in the Art and Science of Maintenance Engineering over the 19 years of its existence.   

The name Terotechnica Maintenance College was registered in 2003. The name is derived from the name Terotechnology, which is a historic name given in 1969 by a commission of enquiry into maintenance. Their suggestion was that the name Terotechnology should be used for what has come to be known as life cycle management.

The name Terotechnica was used in the 80's for a later discontinued maintenance journal. It is thus a history rich name, which we are proud to bear.

The college now offers tuition at three different levels: Diplomas, Certificates, and Short Courses.
Important: Make a point of visiting our Maintenance Career page to understand the architechture of our courses.
Peter Senge promotes the idea of a Learning Organisation to foster innovation at every level of the business. Although such a Learning Organisation involves much more than training, training is at its foundation.

We thus believe that maintenance training is and will be one of the major drivers of maintenance success. And consequently business success....

Because of this it is our view that it is inevitable that the traditional engineering departments at universities will have to be augmented by Maintenance Engineering departments. This college is a stepping stone in that direction.
