Remote Operations in Challenging Environments Training Course

14 - 17 September 2026

What does it take to maintain or decommission a plant using remotely operated robots and cameras?

This course aims to provide managers, designers and operators with a broad view of the Remote Operations specialism including:

  • design and specification of remotely operated equipment
  • rules for tool design
  • software infrastructure must-haves for efficiency, safety and accountability
  • risk reduction measures in high consequence environments
  • building a remote operations team – people, processes and culture
  • plant design considerations

Who this course is for?

This course is designed for professionals involved in strategy, design and operations from organisations:

  • at the concept design stage – seeking to understand how to ‘design for remote’ and its impact on commercial viability
  • without remote operations experience – needing to learn how to develop a functioning system and build a successful team
  • aiming to operate ‘safer, faster, more cost‑effectively’ – looking to introduce human-in-the-loop remote operations
  • looking to upskill their workforce in remote operations while leveraging existing remote infrastructure and facilities

Our approach

Interactive and engaging courses: discussions and hands-on sessions reinforce the core principles.

Use of industry-leading robotic equipment at RACE for first hand experience.

Universal application of principles: While the principles taught have been developed in the fusion sector, they are relevant to any environment where remote equipment is used and mistakes could be costly.
