Schneider Electric expands training course topics

Schneider Electric has enhanced its training courses to now offer contractors and electricians more support, adding new topics to the events to include areas such as energy efficient solutions and the latest lighting technologies.

The events are held by Schneider Electric in partnership with its network of authorised distributors to highlight the extensive range of solutions available, which installers can capitalise on to boost the profitability of a project.

The free events are taking place at distributors' branches and conference facilities across the country and as well as new topics, will focus on core product areas including wiring accessories, home networking and lighting control applications.

In addition, the training will advise installers about the latest cable management and circuit protection offers, which can reduce installation times, ensuring they meet project deadlines and helping end users save money.

At the events, attendees will also be able to share ideas and network with other contractors and will have access to Schneider Electric's technical and sales experts.

Hamish Bingley, customer marketing engineer from Schneider Electric said: "The free events provide a great opportunity for contractors and electricians to keep abreast of the latest technologies, which is particularly important in the current competitive market. One way they can add value to the service they offer customers is to play an advisory role, guiding them through the range of solutions available and making recommendations. Also, with energy efficiency so high on everyone's agenda, there is plenty of scope to have an input on refurbishment as well as new build projects, helping customer to meet environmental obligations while lowering CO2 emissions and energy bills. "

Attendees will also receive vouchers for 15% off featured products and support literature.
