As one of the UK’s only manufacturers to offer in depth, tailored training programs for both its employees and customers, leading manufacturer Hörmann is taking this dedication a step further with the launch of its new Training Academy.

Based at its headquarters in Coalville, Leicester, the brand new facility will be opening from April, offering comprehensive training that reflects the commitment of its German counterpart, which places significant importance on the learning process.

Offering a diverse range of training for all products across its domestic and industrial portfolios, the training is supported by its new state-of-the-art-showroom, which houses its latest innovations and variations across both industry sectors.

With a range of seminars available, the Basic Sales and Product Training is designed to give the attendees confidence in every aspect of Hörmann, providing an introduction into all aspects of the industrial and domestic products ranges. These sessions are specifically designed for Hörmann partners and their employees who wish to receive training on their knowledge of the doors and operators range.
