WHY MATH IS IMPORTANT FOR POWER ENGINEERS Regardless of the engineering role you aim to seek employment in, mathematics plays an important part for two basic reasons. 1. Mathematics involves physical science, and within that – engineering 2. Mathematics still needs to be understood regardless of computers, in order to relate numbers on a screen to actual problem solving and implementing solutions. Which is why, at TFM Consultants International, we offer a 6-day Math and Geometry Course to help refresh our student’s memory on some basic math skills necessary for enrolling in our 4th and 5th Class Power Engineering Course, as well as our Refrigeration Operator class. Because, let’s face it; unless you have been actively using math equations and concepts that you learned in grade 11 and 12, it is unlikely you have retrained the basic principles that will be essential for power engineering. Making our math class a beneficial tutorial to seamlessly apply concepts to our course without confusion or disruption. 5th Class Power Engineer Course Explained Our 5th Class Power Engineer Course involves learning to maintain, operate and manage both industrial and commercial plants that use boiler and refrigeration equipment. Across Canada and the Territories, it is only 5th Class Power Engineers who are allowed to operate this type of equipment, making you an essential employee once you have completed this final course in Power Engineering. And as an industry in need of Engineers of this kind, we believe you will find your employment to be rewarding on many levels. COURSE OUTLINE
