Overview

For over three decades, Terry Wireman has specialized in the improvement of maintenance and reliability. As an international expert in maintenance management, he has assisted hundreds of clients in North America, Europe and the Pacific Rim to improve their maintenance effectiveness. Through a new 10-volume Maintenance Strategy series, the author makes his expertise in the field accessible to industrial and facility organizations everywhere.

Drawing on the author’s first-hand experience in developing and implementing comprehensive maintenance skills training programs, Training Programs for Maintenance Organizations provides a roadmap for addressing the current challenges facing maintenance workforces. While many of the concepts presented have been in the training realm for years, they have not been directly applied to training a technical workforce. This text makes that application.
