CHARLESTON, S.C. (Aug. 6, 2015) – The Life Cycle Institute, the education entity of Life Cycle Engineering (LCE), announced that they have been recognized by the Society for Maintenance and Reliability Professionals (SMRP) as an approved education provider.
“SMRP’s recognition confirms what hundreds of CMRP holders across the globe have recognized,” said Bill Wilder, director of the Life Cycle Institute. “Life Cycle’s Reliability Excellence (Rx) program equips asset management and reliability professionals with knowledge and skills required to secure the prestigious CMRP."
The SMRP Approved Provider Education Program recognizes education and training that align with topics and best practices related to reliability and physical asset management, which have been documented in the SMRP Body of Knowledge and/or Asset Management Landscape. The SMRP Body of Knowledge is the foundation for the ANSI-accredited Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional (CMRP) credential.
“Our program is a new resource for practitioners seeking an additional level of validation for their training providers,” said Chair of the Approved Provider Education Committee Ron Leonard. “Since the release of the ISO 55000 standards last year, more companies are recognizing reliability and physical asset management as a valuable business strategy and are expecting tangible results from their reliability leaders.”
LCE’s recognition by the SMRP as a leader in asset management and reliability education comes on the heels of being selected as the first Endorsed Training Provider (ETP) in the U.S. by the Institute of Asset Management.
