The series consists of 5 modules, as detailed below:

• Electrical Safety 

• Electrical Hazardous Area Equipment 

• Electric Motors

• Generation, Distribution and Control of Electrical Supplies 

• Electrical Protection Systems 

These stand-alone modules will enable an individual to select those learning materials that suit his or her own particular requirements. Modules can be studied at the candidates own pace and can be studied in any order, but the recommended order is as numbered. The study time needed will vary from one module to another, and from one individual to another.  It is likely to be in the range 40 – 60 hours for each module.

Each module will consist of one Workbook, and a "Guide to Open Learning". 

No commitment to enrolling for the complete Oil & Gas Electrical Engineering Systems Series is required at any time although each candidate must register for each module. Modules are non-transferrable and can only be assigned to one candidate.

Each module (detailed above) may be assessed by examination and an individual certificate endorsed by City & Guilds awarded to successful candidates.

Each exam which is passed successfully will contribute to one Certificate of Unit Credit towards The Certificate in Oil & Gas Electrical Engineering Systems.  The Certificate will be awarded after all 5 Certificates of Unit Credit have been accumulated.
