HELOG Academy in Liberia

The Helog Academy in partnership with state organizations and private sector institutions is responding to the urgent need to train industrial mechanics, maintenance engineers, building construction, etc. over the next decade. In addition to the 12 months program, “Industrial Mechanics,” which Helog has recently started is designed to address the death of skilled and competent technicians who are capable of operating efficient industrial processes, required by companies to be globally competitive.
HELOG developed this market driven concept to roll out quality twelve (12) months of technical and Vocational Education suited to the conditions of Liberia, with global standards training in a summary program. It’s HELOG’s contribution to these circumstances and the development of the job profile „Maintenance Engineer“. The total training consists of
– 2 months of theoretical training in the beginning including review of the entry knowledge, teaching in basic disciplines, preparing for the technical training.
– 6 months comprehensive technical instruction in the school workshop. Modular system.
– 4 months divided into 6 blocks internship training in dedicated companies.
– Examination in theoretical knowledge, technical skills and crafting of a work sample.

The aim of this qualification is to enable the Maintenance Engineer to either continue with supplementary courses to become “Industrial Engineer” or to return to the world of work. In most cases the companies who provide internship position are keen to employ these highly qualified workers.
