Foundations of Efficient
Compressed Air System Course

COMPRESSED AIR TRAINING & CERTIFICATION

The e-learning course was developed by CAGI to provide an easy, efficient, and cost-effective method for sales and service professionals to learn the fundamentals of compressed air. The course consists of seven, updated modules that thoroughly cover the fundamentals of compressed air using informative narration supported by clear pictures, illustrations, and videos. Each module is subdivided into short, manageable chapters with chapter summaries at the end of each chapter.

A recall test at the end of each module will verify that the student understands the content. Depending on the current knowledge of the student, the modules can be completed within four to eight hours.
