Proper lubrication is fundamental to machinery reliability, efficiency, and longevity — yet it remains one of the most misunderstood and underutilized maintenance strategies. This Machine Lubricant Analyst course is designed to prepare professionals for advanced roles in lubrication management and equip them with the knowledge required to succeed in the ICML (International Council for Machinery Lubrication) certification exams, aligned with ISO 18436-4 standards.

Participants will gain in-depth expertise in lubricant selection, condition monitoring, contamination control, and failure analysis — all vital for improving performance, reducing costs, and supporting organizational goals for reliability and sustainability.

Through interactive exercises, hands-on testing simulations, and exam preparation sessions, attendees will learn how to build and manage world-class lubrication programs while elevating their professional credentials in this high-impact discipline.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

Demonstrate mastery of the ICML body of knowledge for machinery lubrication.
Evaluate lubricant properties and select the right products for specific applications.
Apply advanced lubricant analysis and condition monitoring techniques.
Implement contamination control strategies to extend equipment life.
Integrate lubrication practices into reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) programs.
Prepare confidently for ICML certification exams with practice and review.

This course is designed for professionals who wish to specialize in lubrication and enhance their maintenance and reliability careers, including:

Maintenance engineers and technicians.
Reliability engineers and managers.
Lubrication analysts and specialists.
Plant operations and maintenance personnel.
Asset management professionals responsible for equipment performance.

The course combines instructor-led lectures, group discussions, interactive workshops, real-world case studies, practical demonstrations, lubricant testing simulations, and ICML exam practice sessions. Active participation and problem-solving exercises ensure effective knowledge transfer and retention.

Day 5 of each course is reserved for a Q&A session, which may occur off-site. For 10-day courses, this also applies to day 10
