Fernox has officially opened the Fernox Experience and The Ernie McDonald Training Academy in Woking. The recent event brought together customers, industry influencers and supply chain partners.
The company says the new interactive academy is a significant investment offering installers, apprentices and trainees at varying levels of experience the chance to gain product knowledge as well as practical training.
Named after Ernie McDonald, the company’s former General Manager for over 25 years, the new academy includes a research and development centre and showcases the company’s full product range while giving an in-depth insight into how products for both domestic and commercial applications work.
The company says the Fernox Experience can be booked for bespoke sessions to meet the needs of new or existing customers, and those currently studying, with Fernox partnering with numerous colleges throughout the year.
