Simutech Troubleshooting
Skills Training System
Realistic
Troubleshooting Simulations on CD-ROM
This
series of AWARD winning interactive CD ROM training programs are ideal
for learning proven troubleshooting techniques and applying them in a
very realistic simulated environment.
It consists of five programs. They can be purchased individually or in
bundles. See pricing below.
Click training program title
below for more information on each title.
See
descriptions below.
Features
These programs contain highly realistic simulations of electrical
equipment for the user to practice troubleshooting. Here the user can
perform most activities they would perform on actual equipment such as
taking meter readings, opening connections and replacing components.
While troubleshooting, the programs evaluate and track the user's
results and process. The programs also contain a section where an expert
guides the user through a systematic troubleshooting approach.
Who
Benefits
Both college students and apprentices find these programs increase both
their skills and confidence when troubleshooting electrical circuits.
Electrical and maintenance personnel also benefit by refining their
reasoning process and increasing the effectiveness of their
troubleshooting skills, resulting in reduced downtime of equipment.
