Now in its ninth year, the ‘We Are Wetrooms’ installation training programme has helped thousands of installers, retailers, plumbers, tilers, and merchant counter sales staff learn about the specification and installation of Impey’s wetroom solutions.
Launched in 2016, the training transitioned to a virtual option in 2021 and has developed with the brand’s product portfolio to encompass information about the company’s core product range including its Aqua-Dec EasyFit floor formers, Aqua-Dec Linear floor formers, WaterGuard waterproofing solution, underfloor heating options and more.
Blended learning
Impey’s training department conducts the sessions from a virtual training hub, kitted out with a product presentation studio and demonstration areas. The company says that purpose-made content ensures that seminar participants can take advantage of the online format, which blends pre-recorded videos with a variety of live Q&A sessions.
The 2024 programme of ‘We Are Wetrooms’ interactive virtual training sessions kicked off in March and there are further dates through the year up to November. All dates will be hosted by Shaun Hunt, Impey’s Technical and Trade Marketing Manager who has over 20 years’ experience in the sector.
Each session covers: wetroom installation and floor formers, wetroom installation into a wooden or concrete floor, how to achieve the perfect wetroom gradient, drainage – gravity fed and pumped waste, and ‘leak-free’ water proofing.
Shaun Hunt said: “I am excited to begin our 2024 ‘We Are Wetrooms’ virtual training events. Combining live and video elements has proved incredibly popular; and the online presentation means that participants can join us from anywhere. Attendees are very engaged and will typically ask questions about the projects they are planning or wetroom installations they have worked on. Each session is tailored to its participants and the level of their wetroom knowledge.”
Neil Whitehead, Head of Marketing explained: “We are now in our fourth year of virtual ‘We Are Wetrooms’ training and attendee numbers are continuing to grow. Shaun has an extensive understanding of wetroom installation and he delivers best practice for wetroom installation in the most engaging and absorbing way. If you have an interest in the installation, specification, or sales of level access shower spaces, this is definitely the course for you.”
The ‘We Are Wetrooms’ pre-bookable online training sessions have now been scheduled for the rest of 2024, with full details of dates and times available on the Impey website.
