Keep your skills up to date with the latest training from Stuart Turner.
Stuart Turner has long supported the need for training throughout the industry and its regular training programmes include college students, installers, and merchant trade counter and showroom staff. Whether you are an installer currently using Stuart Turner products, or would like to learn more about the product ranges, these are the training sessions for you. It is easy to join and there are many benefits to joining our Installer Club.
Having recently enhanced its popular Academy to offer online training webinars to installers, when the training academy was forced to temporarily suspend due to government guidelines during the pandemic, Stuart Turner was able to continue in delivering first class training to hundreds of installers online.
The company is pleased to announce that since August 3rd it has been back hosting in person training days consisting of one full day training with its National Training Manager, Richard Ballard. So make sure you keep up to date on Stuart Turner’s website and social media for all news and updates regarding training, webinars and future dates.
Focused training
Each training day focuses around one product line, so whether you are an installer looking to learn more about the Mainsboost range, or are looking to sharpen up your knowledge on shower pumps, there is always a training session for you. The trainers will be able to answer any questions you have on the day as well as tailoring content to best suit your needs. There is an open Q&A session at the end of the training day where you can have all questions answered by those who know the products best.
Following the success of online training webinars instigated by social distancing guidelines, these will now form part of the academy structure. While hands-on practical training will always be the preferred method, as spaces in training academies are limited, Stuart Turner will create a hybrid model with a mixture of “live” and online audiences at training sessions going forward – meaning if you can’t make it to the academy in person, you can always join online!
Training seminars are provided free of charge, take place over one full day and include topics such as: Overview of Stuart Turner products; Product selection and application; Installation best practice; and Troubleshooting and repairs.
Richard Ballard, National Training Manager for Stuart Turner, comments: “We’ve been delighted with the response from installers to date and this is an ideal opportunity to for them to update their knowledge on established Stuart Turner pumps such as Monsoon and Showermate, along with new products to market.”
