Learning Made Easy With Baxi Potterton Myson’s Hands On Training Courses

With busy appointment books, an upturn in house building*and the rise of smart home technology, there are a number of exciting growth opportunities on the horizon for installers.

To take full advantage, Damien Delaney, technical support manager at Baxi Potterton Myson, says investing in training is key.
Times are changing, and fast.Over the next year alone we will continue to see a surging demand for smart home technology, which will be a big growth area for installers. Then the ErP Directive
comes into play this September,which will have a huge impact on the role of the modern installer.

These changes, in turn, will bring fresh opportunities for installers however, new learning and regular training to ensure a full insight is a must. And the good news is help is at hand. At Baxi Potterton Myson,for example, we offer a range of one-day ‘hands on’ training courses where installers get to put the note pad to one side and spend time getting to grips with product in situ. It also helps that all of our trainers are from installation backgrounds and know the inside track; they understand the customers’ requirements, as well as the products, inside out. And they can offer handy hints and tips to make life easier, as well as answer any queries.As well as the practical training,we want to ensure that installers are well informed on the latest industry developments. As such our Baxi Potterton Myson training courses also include information on legislation, guidelines and regulations. This is particularly significant this year with the introduction of the ErP Directive.Plus, unlike a lot of other manufacturers, we offer a range of unique, non-brand specific courses to help heating engineers widen their knowledge. These include Multimeter training, boiler diagnostics, combi boiler appreciation and system wiring and controls. Also, most recently,we even partnered with Nest to give installers the chance to become an expert on the ground breaking Nest Learning Thermostat™ and remain on the pulse of smart technology. Yes,training can mean a day off the job but the reality is it can pay dividends in the long run. Around 80 percent of our customers work alone, so we understand that taking a day off is a big investment. Our courses can help installers to become more experienced working with products, while remaining one step ahead of emerging trends.
Plus, as jobs will be to the highest quality, happy customers may also recommend their installer to friends and family, bringing them additional work and income.Baxi Potterton Myson has a modern, well equipped training centre at its head office in Ballymount, Dublin and provides a technical manual for all installers to take away following upon course completion.Learning Made Easy With Baxi Potterton Myson’s Hands On Training Courses With busy appointment books, an upturn in house building*and the rise of smart home technology, there are a number of exciting growth opportunities on the horizon for installers.
