Postponed AEMT Ex Training course dates for 2020

17th June 2020
As with many organisations, the AEMT (Association of Electrical & Mechanical Trades) took the action of postponing all of 2020’s Ex training courses until later in the year, when it is hoped the worst of the Coronavirus will be over. While it is still uncertain whether classroom placed learning will take place, online classes and assessments are being developed so that engineers can still be certified to have been assessed by the AEMT to be able to repair Ex equipment to standard.

For those needing re-certification this year, they are advised to book onto an upcoming course as soon as possible to secure an extension on their certificates.

Ex Training courses take place in England, Scotland, Dubai, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand from September 2020. 6 weeks prior to a course taking place, the AEMT will review whether it’s safe to continue with a classroom-based course, or to take the training and assessment online. Attendees are encouraged to check the AEMT Ex Training calendar for the latest details.

The Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades (AEMT) was founded in 1945. It is an International Association representing leading companies in the electrical and mechanical service and repair industry. Members manufacture, distribute, install, service, maintain, and repair, electric motors, drives, pumps, fans, gearboxes, generators, transformers, switchgear, and ancillary equipment. In addition to motor and pump service facilities, most members operate mechanical engineering workshops for metal fabrication and the repair and refurbishment of worn components. Others include panel building facilities and some carry out repairs to industrial electronic equipment. Associate Members are companies that supply products and services to Members.

Proceeding the publication of AEMT’s and BEAMA’s jointly produced first code of practice for The Repair and Overhaul of Electrical Equipment for use in Potentially Explosive Atmospheres, which was adopted as the initial IEC 60079-19 international standard. The association has put together a selection of Training modules covering the Theory and Practical nature to ATEX and IECEx equipment repair. The modules are delivered as accredited training courses by expert teams across the globe.
