"From this course I learned that the service levels required is a key feature of AM planning."
"As a result of this course I will endeavour to create better data quality in order to support our monitoring and evaluation activities within our department, and at the same time try to extend its applications to other less-tangible assets such as environmental assets."
"AM 101 provides the basics of asset management. It was particularly useful for me as I had little knowledge of AM before taking the course."
"The cost of the course was reasonable, flexibility, contents and videos made the course interesting."
"Understanding the overall structure of AM has helped to give me a better understanding of the importance of other key areas / functions that need to be considered in our current AM works, which is currently limited."
"As our organisation is working towards ISO 55000 we will certainly be using the knowledge obtained from this course and applying them to our Asset Management practice."
"I loved it! It covered an introduction to a complex subject comprehensively, but gracefully. Nice job."
"The real life examples were really helpful."
"The AM 100/200 series addresses the big picture of Asset Management while also delving into the detail where absolutely necessary."
"An excellent introduction to Asset Management in an easily understood format."
"I would like to highlight the course's relevance to the daily monitoring activities that we do, and as a basis from which to create improvements in our own processes."
"There are a lot of new learnings and discoveries on asset management theories, principles, practices and knowledge."
"This training has given me a more in-depth understanding with regards to managing assets at [our organisation]."
"This is definitely the way forward for developing professionals in asset management ... The content was entirely appropriate with good examples of best practice which made me question certain areas of my own organisation and practices."
"It stimulated my appetite to understand more about AM. The modules have been designed in a way that it motivated me to learn more."
"I am certainly more confident now … in this course it all started to come together."
"It thankfully links to the IIMM meaning that when you come across a topic you want to delve even further into - this is easily possible."
"I think this is a great start for people new to asset management, or as a refresher to those with experience."
"I am really enjoying the courses and am excited to start AM 203."
"I have promoted this course to many of my colleagues as giving a good oversight into Asset Management, and also gives context to asset planning and asset lifecycle."
"What we learn from this course not only deals with where we work but practices can be applied to our homes as well."
"I believe we will be changing the way in which we approach Long Term Planning in the future… I believe we'll have larger discussions between all parties involved when making process decisions/changes. Now that our knowledge has become equalised in a sense, we can achieve improvements in an aligned manner - because we understand the WHY and WHAT of it all."
