Certified Professional Reliability Engineer (CPRE)

Master Equipment Reliability: Reduce Downtime, Cut Costs, and Drive Performance

Reliability is ensuring equipment will do what it is supposed to, for as long as it is supposed to, when it is supposed to — and having the best processes, tools, and technologies to help you do that. The Certified Professional Reliability Engineer (CPRE) Program gives you the skills and strategies to extend equipment life, minimize or reduce the consequences of failures, and build a proactive maintenance culture that saves time and money while increasing equipment availability.

Who This Course is For

If you’re responsible for keeping equipment running efficiently, this course is built for you. Whether you're a:

  • Reliability Engineer
  • Plant Manager
  • Asset Manager
  • Equipment Manager
  • Operations Manager
  • Facilities Engineer

… or any professional who needs to improve asset reliability and reduce unplanned downtime, the CPRE program delivers the knowledge and hands-on expertise to take your organization to the next level.

What You'll Learn

The CPRE program is designed to help you identify and eliminate reliability gaps in your maintenance processes. You’ll gain a structured, data-driven approach to improving reliability, with practical methods you can apply immediately, including:

  • Building a reliability strategy – Establish goals, define key performance indicators (KPIs), and create a reliability-focused culture.
  • Root cause analysis (RCA) & failure mode analysis (FMEA) – Identify the true cause of failures and prevent them from recurring.
  • Optimizing preventive & predictive maintenance (PM & PdM) – Move from reactive maintenance to a proactive, reliability-centered approach.
  • Asset life cycle & cost-benefit analysis – Make data-driven decisions about equipment investments and maintenance strategies.
  • Work prioritization & planning – Develop job plans, schedule maintenance effectively, and improve workflow execution.
  • Using reliability technologies – Learn how to leverage a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS), condition-based monitoring, vibration analysis, and predictive maintenance tools.
  • Reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) implementation – Design a structured maintenance program that balances cost, risk, and performance.

How You'll Learn

This hands-on, results-driven training combines practical application with expert-led instruction so you don’t just learn — you master reliability engineering.

📌 4-Day Best Practices for Reliability Engineers Course (Remote) – Led by industry experts covering foundational reliability strategies.

📌 5-Day Learning Lab (In-Person) – Hands-on exercises in precision alignment, vibration analysis, infrared inspection, ultrasonic testing, oil analysis, and more.

📌 Interactive Exercises & Case Studies – Work through real-world maintenance challenges to develop problem-solving skills.

📌 Practical Assignments (Remote Homework) – Conduct reliability studies, develop asset strategies, and present findings to leadership.

📌 Final Exam & Certification – Score at least 70% on a 100-question, open-book exam to earn your Certified Professional Reliability Engineer (CPRE) credential.

Why This Certification Matters

An effective reliability strategy doesn’t just reduce failures — it saves your company millions in lost productivity and unnecessary repairs. With CPRE certification, you’ll:

✔ Minimize unplanned downtime by improving maintenance efficiency.
✔ Eliminate repeat failures by implementing a data-driven RCA process.
✔ Cut maintenance costs by optimizing preventive and predictive strategies.
