Online client representative
JFD has taken its Client Representative Course online, giving candidates access to a high quality instructor-led course without having to come along to our training facility in Aberdeen.
This course is designed to provide offshore project supervisors and managers with the relevant skills needed to become an effective and fully competent client representative.
This new course, delivered over 5 days, consists of 14 easy to use modules delivered via our online learning platform.
The modules are supplemented by live ‘one to one’ and ‘one to small group’ discussions with our regular course tutors.
It delivers the same instructor-supported training material as our classroom-based course with additional opportunity for plenty of one to one time with your tutor. Your progress will be checked at regular intervals with quizzes and discussions and you’ll have an exam at the end of the course.
While still being delivered over 5 days, this course offers a more flexible course delivered around your day. You can learn at your own location and save considerably on travel time and costs. If you’ve been negatively impacted by the current Covid-19 situation it may help you to improve your knowledge and skills while you’re at home, helping you make a greater impact at work in future.
This is part of our response to dealing with the current Covid-19 crisis but we intend it to become a permanent part of our training offering.
We’d be glad to hear from any of our customers who require any additional information and if there are other courses you’d like us to develop in an online format, please do not hesitate to contact our training centre.
“Found the course to be maybe better than a normal classroom session as it allowed me to proceed at a pace allowing for a phone call or two. The material was very good and the voice lectures were excellent with the presentation. Maria was excellent with follow up and getting anything course related sorted out in a minute. Did not wait for any extra material or notes needed, was sorted directly as my Skype call ended. James put a very good course together with lots of material and I know this is not easy to do but was excellent. The quality of the visual material was excellent and all run well. Experience counts on subject matter and it was tops from James. Good value for money; I saved money on travel and air tickets and for a time like this, excellent. Enjoyed the course and recommend it especially to those sitting at home during the COVID 19 wasted stand still time. Good opportunity to get things done.” 
"This was very professionally run with the Lecturers being clearly very experienced and knowledgeable in their fields. Very professional and all needs were attended to."
"This was your pilot online course and it gave me the freedom to go through the modules at my own speed and there were check in calls scheduled to ensure everyone was on track. Right from the word go there was good communication from JFD with all arrangements made clear and on start up we were welcomed officially. Maria did a great job right through the course to keep us informed. Some minor niggles with videos that were sometimes missing or very lengthy to get the message across but overall it was well structured and very well presented and anything that was communicated to JFD through James and Maria was immediately taken care of. Great course and great staff, thank you."
"I have spent 27 years in the diving industry, during which time I’ve worked as a diver, supervisor, superintendent and client rep. After working for operators in both the oil & gas and renewable sectors, I joined JFD in 2019 as their diving technical authority. As an experienced author and instructor of client rep courses we made the decision to redevelop and expand the course content. This included reintroducing a leadership and management day, which is now taught by a professional psychologist, a new DP and renewables module and recently as a result of the COVID-19 crisis, an online version has been developed. The online course is support by facetime sessions which occur daily and is packed with informative videos, PowerPoint sessions and voice over lectures. The pilot course was very well received by the candidates who stated they would recommend it to potential client reps without reservation. I believe the course has all the content required to prepare any potential client rep for work in both the renewable and oil & gas sectors."| Course | Start date | End date | Location | No students | Cost | Book |
