Training is an important element in all workplaces but, for those working in the fast-developing electrotechnical industry, it is essential to stay abreast of the latest developments, techniques, and regulations. Electricians, technicians, and engineers who receive up to date electrical training are equipped to complete work tasks more quickly and competently, which results in safer, more compliant installations – whether they are part of a business or working independently.
Bespoke technical training courses offer some important advantages for practicing technicians, as they allow each technician to receive targeted support that meets their individual needs and those
of their business – without putting the quality of the content at risk.
Why you should consider bespoke electrical training
At PTT, we deliver a range of bespoke and standard, industry-approved training courses for both qualified and trainee electricians. So, why should you consider a tailor-made approach to your training needs?
1) Control the course content. There is little point if your electricians sit through extensive training if it isn’t pitched exactly to their needs, as they are less likely to engage or to learn anything new. By tailoring the course content, you can ensure that relevant aspects are prioritised, and old material is disregarded.
2) Achieve better flexibility. Taking operatives away from their work is often necessary to complete training, but it can leave you short-staffed. With bespoke or on-line training arrangements, you can reduce the time engineers spend away from the workplace and even complete it in-house at a time to suit. At PTT, we are happy to work with you to deliver our bespoke training courses at a convenient time to minimise disruption to your daily activities.
3) Save time. At PTT, we can take control of the training plan on your behalf, customising it to meet your precise needs. Not only will this relieve you of the headache of designing a bespoke plan, but you will be able to focus on other responsibilities, reassured that your training is being prepared in time for the agreed start date.
4) Improve performance. Whether you wish your team to develop new skills, enhance an existing skill, or get up to date with the latest regulations, bespoke training courses are the ideal way to improve your business performance. By being able to advertise that your electricians have received professional training, you will also attract new customers who will be reassured that your business’s installations are safe and effective.
5) Boost morale. Learning and development is key to securing a more confident, happier workforce, who will work harder for your business and display greater loyalty in the long-term. With research demonstrating that nearly 70 per cent of UK workers have considered leaving jobs because of a lack of on the job training; it pays dividends to ensure that your team feel valued.
