Training
Develop ISO 18436 certified vibration analysts
In partnership with SPM Academy we deliver ISO 18436-1 and ISO 18436-2 compliant vibration analysis certification programmes, plus courses in bearing maintenance, lubrication management, machine inspection and industrial asset management.
- ISO 18436-1 and ISO 18436-2 compliant CAT I and CAT II certification programmes
- Turkish course material and Turkish-speaking instructors
- Hands-on practice with simulators and real equipment
- Company-specific, public or virtual classroom
- Fault diagnosis practice through case studies
- Examination and digital certificate/badge process
Our approach
The weakest link in a condition monitoring programme is usually not the instrument but the team collecting and interpreting the data. Our training therefore combines theory with case studies, and practice with simulators and demonstrations on real equipment.

Frequently asked questions
What is required for an ISO 18436 CAT I certificate?
Three conditions must be met together: passing the SPM Academy CAT I certification exam, completing an approved Vibration Analysis Category I training course, and having at least 6 months of practical experience in vibration data collection or analysis.
