HOW A BESPOKE METAL FENCING SOLUTION DELIVERED STRENGTH, SPEED, AND SUBTLETY
GATE SAFE DISTANCE LEARNING PROVES POPULAR
Gate Safe has reported a strong response to its Gate Safe Aware Distance Learning module, launched in April, following the need to cancel all face-to-face training in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
Enquiries are on a par with the traditional training offering and the feedback from delegates who have taken the course has been excellent. The online course is now fully digital, allowing the training pack and follow up test all to be issued and marked via specialist software.
The distance learning module provides installers with an opportunity to improve their understanding of automated gate and barrier safety in the comfort of their own home via an interactive on-line two-hour tutorial led by Gate Safe Technical and Training Advisor Rob Williams.
Gate Safe is recommending that all delegates taking the distance learning should follow up with a (free) face-to-face training session within 6 months to access the full suite of Gate Safe Aware installer benefits and a one-year listing on the renowned Gate Safe Aware Installer Register.
Feedback from delegates who have taken the course is proving positive.
Lee Straney of Straney Trix Group commented: ‘The training was good, and I found the fact that it was delivered on a one to one basis particularly helpful. This made it easy to ask questions as and when they cropped up and if any technical terminology was used that I wasn’t familiar with, it could be explained straight away, something that is not so easy to achieve in a classroom setting.”
Gate Safe Founder Richard Jackson said, “The current social distancing restrictions have been a major catalyst in terms of fast-tracking the launch of this training but, in reality, this is an initiative that has been on our radar for some time. Following the success of the current Distance Training module, we have plans to extend this learning to other modules, so watch this space!”
