Professor John Sharp and Dr Chris Bamber will be travelling to Libya following the successful graduation of, the 2008/2009 cohorts of 30 Engineering students through EETTEC and OLC colleges.The visit is aimed at promoting the successful achievement of Higher National Diploma students from:
Mellitah Gas; WAHA Oil Corporation; Sirte Oil Company (SOC); and Azzawiya Oil Refining Company.
While in Triploi,visits will be made to National Oil Corporation, Brega Company, Mellitah Gas, Zuetina Oil Company, Azzawiya Oil Refining Company and WAHA Oil Corporation, The Higher Institute of Electronics and many government infrastructure related projects.
Dr Chris Bamber says: “This is a very important visit for Libyan Companies, EETTEC and OLC as it aims to promote the success of our Higher National Diploma courses in Engineering and will also serve as a launch pad for the newly developed level 5 HND in Business and Management.We want to continue to support the development of Libya through our education programmes and offer the very best in education and skills enhancement opportunities for aspiring young professionals.”
EDEXCEL and EETTEC
EDEXCEL is the leading provider of internationally recognized qualifications and the UK number one higher education accrediting body. Following a grueling assessment of EETTEC Ltd abilities, competencies and new facilities in the new academy at, 66 Castle Street, Bolton, they have provided EETTEC Ltd with a glowing report for their engineering, Higher National Certificate and Diploma programmes.
This clearly demonstrates that EETTEC provide engineering Higher National Certificates (HNC) and Higher National Diplomas (HND) to exacting and demanding quality standards.

Interest in Higher National Certificates
Requests for proposals are flooding into EETTEC for the new HNC in Operations Engineering. This course is an exiting technical course to be run over 39 weeks at the training academy in Bolton, Lancashire, Greater Manchester. Ten modules will complete the HNC program. Professor John Sharp warns that this is an intense program and there will not be enough time for underachievers to get through the program in the scheduled 39 weeks. He suggests that only serious contenders apply for this course because, it will be both tough academically and a challenge for students to keep up with the pace, hence time management and planning skills are an essential prerequisite for joining. An alternative 52 week HNC program could be discussed at the request of individuals, training managers and HR professionals.
New Workshop Training for Blue Chip Company
EETTEC have obtained approval from Bolton, UK based Hitachi to deliver Engineering Technical workshop training for their Kaizen engineers. Dr Chris Bamber said: "Following discussion with Hitachi of their requirements, and then development and approval of a course outline for their Kaizen engineers, we received confirmation that the program we offered has completely hit the mark." This program will take place at the Old County Police Station and will provide a mix of engineering theory that underpins practical work carried out in the fully equipped machine centre and workshops.
National Oil Corporation Approval
EETTEC Ltd have National Oil Corporation (NOC) approval and are now listed as engineering and technical training provider for Libyan Petroleum, oil and gas corporations. Now that the NOC have authorised the training programs for the 2007/2008 season it is expected that EETTEC Ltd will be providing the NOC corporations with HNC and HND training here in the UK. The training centre is fully equipped to deliver a range of technical HNCs and HNDs such as Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Instrumentation and Control, Process and Plant Operations.
