Abloy UK has announced its new schedule of training dates via its Academy and Digital Access Solutions Academy. All courses take place at Abloy UK headquarters in Willenhall, West Midlands. Most courses are free of charge, offering attendees a complimentary educational experience.
The Foundations course is designed to help delegates understand the minimum legal performance criteria for access control locking applications for fire and escape doors, BS EN 179 and BS EN 1125 and the new BS EN 13637.
The Foundation Plus course is an advanced add-on, providing attendees with the knowledge to specify products that are suitable for both the application and door type.
Both courses are led by Pat Jefferies, Commercial Director at Abloy UK; retained by BSI and CEN as the UK’s electric locking technical expert, and a member of committees responsible for new standards and legislation across Europe.
