New training brochure now available from Bürkert

These courses provide theory-based learning, backed up with practical applications, for a hands-on approach. Brkert uses examples and case study materials throughout the courses to highlight typical applications, all delivered by its industry experienced staff. The recent move to the new Cirencester headquarters has also made travelling more convenient and easy to access by car and train, with free parking onsite.

Brkert's training courses are modular and independent of each other, so people can attend any or all of the courses. All courses are free to attend with lunch provided and refreshments available throughout the day.

Helen Christopher, Brkert's UK Marketing Manger is responsible for the organisation of the courses. She says: "One of the reasons we decided not to charge for training is that it removes a barrier to people attending. Delegates' expectations are generally surpassed after each course, so much so that we have a lot of training requests purely on basis of personal referrals. Feedback by companies sending trainees to Brkert is also very positive, which means courses are usually booked-up early."

Donald French, Yeo Valley Engineering Technical Manager, says: "We are really grateful here at Yeo Valley for the excellent training provided by Brkert over the last few years. We have found Brkert's trainers, facilities and general hospitality all first class and would happily recommend their services to others."

Nick Doughty, Hall & Woodhouse Limited Site Manager, adds: "Our Engineering team at the Hall and Woodhouse Brewery have attended several of Brkert's free training sessions. We have increased our knowledge of steam and hygienic systems, and brought practical information back to the Brewery which has now been successfully implemented, and has enabled us to drive health and safety forward in this field. This is a great initiative from Brkert and I would urge any company to take up their generous offer".

Responding to customer demand and feedback, Brkert has drawn up its training schedule for 2013 which includes valve training being run as a fundamental subject plus other application type training. A new course has been devised for Gas Handling, where Brkert experts will share their experience in complete gas control loops and the Hygienic Processing course is back by popular demand with many delegates coming from the food & beverage and pharmaceutical industries.

At the end of each course the delegates are presented with a Brkert training course pack which contains a folder, notebook and the training notes on a USB stick. For further details contact Helen Christopher by email at [email protected] or by phone +44 (0)1285 648720.
