Description : :

This course provides mechanically inclined public safety cyclists with skills to maintain the department fleet and perform all but the most technical repairs. The emphasis of the curriculum is on preventive maintenance, general repairs, and overhaul of component groups. The course will cover component groups and the interrelated nature of the individual parts, bike-specific tools, cleaning and inspection, periodic maintenance and overhauls, and documentation. An in-house maintenance officer translates into less bicycle downtime, fewer expensive repairs, and safer, longer-lasting bicycles. Taught by professionally qualified bike maintenance instructors, the Maintenance Officer Certification Course will prepare you to ensure that your bike personnel have ready access to well-maintained bicycles - a must for personal safety and effectiveness!

Course Length: 40 hours
