2 02 FORTH VALLEY COLLEGE Our mission is to Make Learning Work and our vision, shaping the future, developing a world class service! The College is based in the Forth Valley region which is situated in the heart of Scotland and covers three local authority areas: Clackmannanshire, Falkirk and Stirling. A great base to explore Scotland and what is has to offer. A gateway to the scenic highlands and an area of outstanding beauty overlooked by the magnificent Ochil Hills, the area has a wide variety of things to do and see with something to cater for every interest. The college has invested 1.5million in their facilities recently and staff have a wealth of industrial knowledge and experience. We have close links with major companies and have a significant expertise in delivering skills for the oil and gas industry due to the College s close proximity to Grangemouth petrochemical industry. Forth Valley College is also one of six members of the Oil and Gas Academy for Scotland (OGAS) and plays a key role within the Energy Skills Partnership (ESP) group. SCOTLAND ALLOA STIRLING Glasgow We have created a very practical learning environment with specialised industrial equipment and industrial trainers. We seek to deliver training on-site with clients to further enhance the experiential learning of our programmes. Forth Valley College has STEM Assured Status, the industry-led quality mark for STEM training awarded by the New Engineering Foundation (NEF). Aberdeen FALKIRK Edinburgh

6 06 VIRTUAL ROOM CONTROL With our world class Virtual Control Room Forth Valley College has the expertise to help your business build capacity and skill for those working in both on/offshore Emergency Response or running petrochemical trains. Virtual Control Room (VCR) Duration: Four (4) days This course is designed to train Process Operators in the fundamentals of the Control Room Operator role and enable them to begin the transition to DCS / Control room Operator. Basic concepts of DCS systems including Manual/Automatic/Cascade control systems. Follow and implement written procedures when starting up/shutting down a plant. Maintain steady operation and optimise plant Handle alarms and react positively to deviations and high/low alarms to prevent trip situations. Emergency shutdown logics, utilise cause and effect charts, defeats and over-rides Who Should Attend: This programme is aimed at those looking to progress a career as a Control Room Operator or university engineering graduates looking to enhance their employability. Our VCR programme can also be modelled to simulate the Petrochemical Industry for those looking to develop problem solving and Supervisory skills, in process or maintenance. Mode of Delivery: Participants will be working in our state of the Art Oil & Gas Training Virtual Control Room (VCR) Facilities. The same facility is also used for in-house courses for BP, Shell, PetroIneos and Ineos. Certification: Successful candidates will receive a FVC College certificate of recognition. BUILDING CAPACITY AND SKILL FOR THOSE WORKING IN OFFSHORE EMERGENCY RESPONSE
