    • About the College

      The Online Vocational College of Electrical Engineering Vocations (OVCEE) is a premier digital learning institution dedicated to providing hands-on, industry-relevant technical education in the field of electrical engineering. Established with a mission to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skill application, the college offers flexible, competency-based programs designed to prepare learners for real-world careers in the electrical and energy sectors.

      At OVCEE, we believe that quality technical training should be accessible to everyone, regardless of location or schedule. Through a robust online platform, learners gain access to interactive courses, virtual laboratories, video demonstrations, live sessions with experienced instructors, and simulation-based assessments that mirror workplace environments. The college focuses on building competencies that align with global TVET standards and industry expectations, ensuring that graduates are well-prepared for employment, self-employment, or further professional advancement.

      Our programs are structured around Competency-Based Education and Training (CBET) principles, emphasizing skill mastery, problem-solving, and continuous assessment. Each learner progresses at their own pace, guided by qualified trainers and mentors who bring years of field experience in electrical installation, maintenance, power systems, and control engineering. The curriculum integrates both theoretical knowledge and practical application through virtual tools, project-based learning, and industry attachments for advanced learners.

      The college offers specialized courses in areas such as Electrical Installation and Maintenance, Power System Operations, Industrial Motor Control, Renewable Energy Systems, Electrical Machine Technology, and Building Wiring and Design. Each program is developed in collaboration with industry experts, ensuring that the content reflects the latest trends in technology, energy efficiency, automation, and safety standards.

      In addition to technical mastery, OVCEE emphasizes digital literacy, entrepreneurship, and occupational safety to empower graduates with the versatility required in the modern workplace. Students learn not only how to wire, install, and maintain systems but also how to design innovative solutions, manage electrical projects, and apply emerging technologies such as smart grids and solar systems.

      Our learning management system (LMS) provides an intuitive, user-friendly interface where learners can access study materials, submit assignments, track progress, and interact with peers and instructors. Live practical demonstrations are supported by high-definition video tutorials and 3D simulations to ensure clear visualization of electrical concepts and procedures. Assessments are competency-based and outcome-oriented, focusing on what learners can do rather than what they can recall.

      The Online Vocational College of Electrical Engineering Vocations stands as a model of accessible, affordable, and relevant technical education for the modern world. We are committed to nurturing the next generation of skilled electricians, technicians, and technologists who will drive innovation, safety, and sustainability in the electrical industry.

      At OVCEE, our motto is “Skill, Innovation, and Empowerment.” We transform passion into profession by equipping learners with the technical excellence, confidence, and entrepreneurial mindset needed to thrive in today’s fast-evolving energy and technology sectors.

Unit Description

The Electrical Machine Winding unit equips learners with the essential knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to design, construct, repair, and test windings for various types of electrical machines. It focuses on both AC and DC machines, including transformers, induction motors, alternators, and generators. Learners gain practical experience in preparing winding data, selecting suitable materials, and carrying out winding operations in accordance with industry standards and safety procedures.

This unit emphasizes competency-based, hands-on learning, where trainees perform real or simulated winding tasks using appropriate tools, insulation materials, and connection methods. Through demonstrations and guided exercises, learners master techniques such as coil preparation, insertion, connection, impregnation, and testing of windings for efficiency and reliability.

The unit also highlights the importance of interpreting winding diagrams, maintaining accuracy during coil placement, and performing insulation and continuity tests after completion of work. Safety precautions and adherence to workshop practices are emphasized throughout the training.

Learning Emphasis

  • Understanding the principles of electrical machine operation.

  • Identifying types of windings and their applications.

  • Preparing winding data and materials.

  • Constructing, inserting, and connecting coils for AC and DC machines.

  • Performing insulation, polarity, and continuity tests.

  • Repairing and rewinding faulty electrical machines.

  • Applying occupational safety and maintenance procedures.

Expected Learning Outcomes

By the end of this unit, learners should be able to:

  1. Interpret winding diagrams and prepare winding data sheets.

  2. Select appropriate tools, materials, and insulation components for winding.

  3. Construct and insert coils accurately into machine slots.

  4. Connect windings according to specified configurations (star, delta, lap, wave, etc.).

  5. Test completed windings for continuity, insulation resistance, and polarity.

  6. Repair and maintain faulty windings safely and effectively.

Unit Description

The Electrical Installation System Maintenance unit equips learners with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required to inspect, service, repair, and maintain electrical installations and equipment in both domestic and industrial environments. The unit emphasizes preventive, corrective, and predictive maintenance practices aimed at ensuring safety, reliability, and efficiency of electrical systems.

Learners are trained to identify faults, interpret maintenance schedules, test electrical circuits, and replace defective components in accordance with standard procedures and safety regulations. Through practical demonstrations, simulations, and guided exercises, trainees gain hands-on experience in performing maintenance tasks that meet professional and industry standards.

This unit also covers documentation of maintenance work, use of appropriate tools and test instruments, and adherence to workplace health and safety policies. Learners develop competence in planning maintenance routines, responding to breakdowns, and applying troubleshooting techniques to restore electrical systems to normal operation.

Learning Emphasis

  • Understanding types and importance of electrical maintenance.

  • Applying preventive and corrective maintenance techniques.

  • Performing routine inspection and servicing of installations.

  • Diagnosing and repairing electrical faults safely.

  • Interpreting maintenance schedules and records.

  • Ensuring compliance with IEE regulations and safety standards.

Expected Learning Outcomes

By the end of this unit, learners should be able to:

  1. Perform inspection and testing of electrical systems.

  2. Carry out preventive and corrective maintenance on installations.

  3. Troubleshoot and repair electrical faults effectively.

  4. Document maintenance activities in line with institutional procedures.

  5. Apply occupational safety and health practices during maintenance work.
