Are you ready to lead the transition to a net-zero economy? Our Level 5 Award in Green Technologies (Pathway: Hydrogen Production Systems and Technologies) is designed for industry professionals, engineers, and anyone passionate about the future of clean energy. Whether you’re looking to upskill, change careers, or make a meaningful impact, this course will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed to excel in the rapidly growing hydrogen sector.
This course is ideal for learners progressing from the Level 3 Award in Hydrogen Applications and Technologies or those with accredited qualifications at Level 3 or above who are interested in the application of hydrogen systems and technologies.
Course Content
What You Will Learn:
- Health and Safety: Understand the requirements and standards for hydrogen production systems and technologies.
- Risk Management: Conduct risk assessments and implement safety controls for working in gaseous atmospheres.
- Environmental Impact: Explore the environmental impact and fuel security considerations related to energy usage.
- Hydrogen Production: Gain insight into various hydrogen production processes.
- Gas Grid Integration: Analyse the impact of hydrogen on the gas grid network system.
- Gas Blending: Learn about gas blending for hydrogen and natural gas.
- System Design: Understand the implications of hydrogen by-products and fossil fuel combustion for system design.
Flexible Learning for Busy Professionals:
Most of this course is delivered online, with learning and assessment materials available 24/7 via the College’s online learning platform. This allows you to complete the course around your existing work commitments and progress at your own pace. You will be given advanced notice of the session(s) where you will attend the college to complete practical assessments.
Take the first step towards a future in hydrogen technologies and make a lasting impact on the world of clean energy.
Assessment Methods
The course is delivered through a blend of online learning and laboratory practical tasks. Most of the theory is delivered online and assessed through a portfolio of evidence, with learners required to attend the Ballymena campus for at least one full day to complete tutor-led practical demonstrations and observations. The proposed dates for the practical sessions will be shared on the first day of the course or during pre-enrolment.
- You will be required to have sufficient literacy and numeracy skills to enable them to successfully complete the qualification.
The OCN NI Level 5 Award in Green Technologies will allow learners to progress to the OCN NI Level 5 Certificate and Extended Certificate in Green Technologies. From there learners may progress to higher level qualifications in the area of environmental conservation and green technologies or into employment.
