SAFT USA Module 2.2: Constructions

Monday 23rd October 2017

Module 2.2 looks at the six main constructions in use today, as well as some of the less well-known types. It considers the manufacturing processes used within the factory, the sequence of operations, terminology and machinery.

Also described are the advantages and disadvantages of each construction, and how combinations of different constructions can be used to meet the customers’ requirements.

The practical examination of different construction types is a key part of this module.

SAFT course costs (quoted in British pounds)

There is a variable cost per module, depending on how many modules the delegate attends. If someone attends just one module, the cost will be GBP 1125 (1 x GBP 1125). If a delegate attends all 6 modules, the cost will be GBP 5,250 (6 x GBP 875).

1 or 2 modules: GBP 1125 per module
3 modules: GBP 1000 per module
4 modules: GBP 945 per module
5 or 6 modules: GBP 875 per module

However, modules 2 and 4 consist of two separate parts and so a delegate may attend only one of the days. Therefore, the cost would be as the example below:

Example 1 – A delegate takes 2 half modules – that would count as one module and be GBP 1125.

Example 2 – A delegate attends 3 ½ modules, this would count as 4 modules and the cost would be (3 x GBP 945 + a ½ module at GBP 482.50) = GBP 3,307.50.

SAFT examinations

After completing the modules, the delegate may take the examinations to gain SAFT accreditation.

Examinations are held twice a year (normally in February and August), and can be at either SATRA UK or at mutually agreed locations around the world.

To gain the accreditation, the delegate must take examinations in five out of the six modules (including the core modules) at a cost of 95 GBP per module.
