“Develop Training has provided technical training for a number of clients based in Northern Ireland for a number of years, but their delegates have typically come over to the mainland for training delivery,” said Develop Training Sales & Marketing Director Chris Wall, “This fantastic new facility allows us to provide the same high quality learning to these clients on more at a location that’s convenient for them.”
The partnership between Develop Training and APP was described by Sean Maguire, Product Sales Manager for APP, as a perfect marriage: “We’ve been doing business together for some time, with Develop Training providing electro and butt fusion training courses for APP and our clients for several years. APP is a leading supplier of products, services and solutions for Utilities, Civil Engineering and Construction projects, and through this partnership, APP and Develop Training can provide even greater value to our respective clients.”
Visitors on the Open Day were given a tour of the newly constructed training facilities and were able to observe delegates undertaking an electro and butt fusion of polyethylene (PE) pipe training course.
