Course Overview
Maintenance budgets are cut on cathodic protection design in good years and paid for in bad ones. The course gives participants a defensible structure for the engineering and maintenance work capability and the judgement to adapt it. Moving this part of engineering and maintenance work from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting cathodic protection design, ready to be adapted internally. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the practice within engineering and maintenance work and prepares them for it. The level assumes working familiarity with the asset base but no prior formal training in the engineering and maintenance work capability. Mature organisations treat cathodic protection design as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to the engineering and maintenance work discipline that the participant is prepared to defend internally.

Document decisions about cathodic protection design in a form that remains useful after the people change.
