Our Process

Outcome-based industrial training must be measurable, with acceptable results centered on an increase in equipment utilization. All segments of the technician’s skills development build on each other and ultimately lead to a mastery of the troubleshooting process that reduces the amount of time to determine the cause of machine failures.

Skill development in any area includes a well-known learning process that begins with awareness, progresses through comprehension to skilled, and ultimately, with time ‘on the job,’ arrives at the level of mastery. (See definitions below)

IntelliSchematic, LLC focuses on developed tools, services and implementation procedures to assist companies in this process.

Awareness –

Awareness is a general understanding of what the technology is and how it is applied to a machine’s operation. (For example, at this level the technician can understand that hydraulic cylinders may be used to lift, lower, or press in a work application.) The awareness begins with assessing exactly what the technician knows or doesn’t know. A complete Skills Assessment often helps to determine exactly where the technician is in his progression to mastery.

Comprehension –

Comprehension is a level of understanding that may include knowledge of what most individual components are used for in certain technology or on a particular machine, the components' theory of operation, and how they function in a system. Our E-learning reaches this far in providing all or portions of this learning segment.

Skilled –

A skilled technician, in part, understands the application of all components used on a particular machine, both individually and holistically. At this level a technician may use his knowledge to apply a systematic approach to troubleshooting. His skill level may include electrical, hydraulics, pneumatics, mechanical, controls, etc., in one of these technical areas or all of them. IntelliSchematic, LLC provides contextually accurate and stimulating Classroom Training to assist in achieving this level of learning.

Mastery –

A master technician applies knowledge and experience with machine documentation to quickly isolate a failure in one or more of the machine’s operational events. He not only applies his knowledge of component theory of operation, functionality, and application but also utilizes schematics and other important tools and documentation to troubleshoot at a most efficient level. The IntelliSchematic, which is incorporated in the Machine-specific Training, is a critical tool in this process.
