Validate your expertise in maintenance best practices and equipment reliability by earning the industry’s leading technician certification.
Passing the rigorous Certified Maintenance & Reliability Technician (CMRT) examination confirms your competency in core maintenance skills, troubleshooting, preventive and predictive maintenance, and safe work practices.
Our three-day classroom based CMRT preparation training course provides focused, practical instruction aligned with the Society for Maintenance and Reliability Professionals (SMRP) Body of Knowledge for technicians.
Designed for maintenance technicians and skilled trades professionals, this course equips participants with the knowledge, confidence, and hands-on reliability principles needed to successfully complete the Certified Maintenance and Reliability Technician exam.
Day 1 – Maintenance Practices
- Overview of CMRT certification and benefits.
- Maintenance strategies: Reactive, Preventive, Predictive.
- Safety standards and compliance.
- Use of CMMS/EAM systems for planning and execution.
Day 2 – Preventive & Predictive Maintenance
- Preventive Maintenance (PM): Time-based and usage-based tasks.
- Predictive Maintenance (PdM): Condition monitoring techniques:
– Vibration analysis.
– Infrared thermography.
– Oil analysis.
- Reliability-Centred Maintenance principles.
Day 3 – Troubleshooting & Analysis
- Troubleshooting methodologies: Fishbone diagrams, 5 Whys.
- Root Cause Analysis (RCA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA).
- Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA).
- Reading schematics and interpreting technical documentation.
Supporting personnel in attending this CMRT preparation course delivers tangible business advantages, including:
- Improved Equipment Reliability – Fewer repeat failures through correct maintenance and early fault detection.
- Reduced Downtime – Faster, more accurate troubleshooting and improved preventive maintenance execution.
- Lower Maintenance Costs – Less rework, fewer emergency repairs, and extended asset life.
- Safer Operations – Improved adherence to safe work practices and maintenance standards.
- Stronger Technical Workforce – Skilled, certified technicians applying consistent, reliability-focused practices.
Investing in CMRT certification strengthens maintenance execution, improves asset performance, and supports long-term operational excellence.
- Participants are not required to sit the CMRT exam upon course completion.
- Course participation does not include exam registration or fees; these are the responsibility of each participant.
- Completion of this course does not guarantee success in the CMRT exam.
