At the beginning of the year, Advanced Machinery Services opened its Wadkin Bursgreen academy with two trainers and now, eight months later they are going to have a new member in the training department.

The new Trainer is going to cover the high demand of training courses in the London area and South of the country. One of the advantages that Wadkin Bursgreen academy offers, is a written quotation within 24 hours after the customer’s enquiry. As well as this, the customers can choose if they want the trainer to come to their workshop or have the training in the Wadkin Bursgreen academy in Leicestershire.

Steve McGloin, training director said: “Since we opened our woodworking training academy, we have been receiving more and more requests for training. We are very pleased to be receiving these enquires but, we need more trainers to cover all of these extra demands. We aspire to give the best service and offer closer dates to deliver the training as soon as possible”.  Stephen continues: “Our intention is to have six trainers by the end of the year”.

The Wadkin Bursgreen academy provides woodworking training courses for all the woodworking machines from novice woodworkers to trainers. The attendants can learn all about woodworking machines and ask all the questions to trainers with more than 30 years in the industry.

Gary, Wadkin Bursgreen trainer said: “Some people in the woodworking industry still don’t know that by law, everybody working with woodworking machines must have an accredited certificate. We receive calls often asking if an experienced machinist can deliver training to the other operators and the answer is ‘no’. Unless the machinist has Train the Trainer accredited certification”.

The Wadkin Bursgreen academy started with the general woodworking training courses for novice, refresher and train the trainer. But now, you can get more specific training courses such as:

  • Profile moulder setting and operation training
  • Straight knife and profile grinding
  • Abrasive wheel safety
  • Chainsaw training courses

Phil, the training manager said: “At Wadkin Bursgreen we work to deliver the best woodworking machinery training courses across the country. My goal as trainer is make sure that when I finished my job, all the operators know the risks and the right way to use them safely. I like to prepare and deliver interactive, interesting and useful courses.”

Phil continued: “We tailor every single training for our customers and I share my 30-year knowledge and experience with the students. We want our attendants to learn and keep all the information to avoid accidents. Another thing that our customers appreciate is that we respond quickly to their enquiry and produce the certification as soon as possible because we know how important it is for them.”
