Pumps are a major capital cost item, a key reliability problem and consume huge amounts of energy.  For most companies the costs of owning and running pumps are much higher than they should be.  A shortage of general knowledge on how to apply, specify, install and operate pumping equipment is the major reason for these high costs.  These training courses are designed to address this problem.
