Manufacturer, Worcester, Bosch Group, has appointed Jon Wheeler as its new training manager, as part of its ongoing commitment to providing installers with a host of development opportunities.
Previously regional sales manager for the south east, Jon brings a wealth of experience to the role and has been promoted to oversee the rolling out of training initiatives and assist in finding solutions to significant industry challenges.
In his new capacity, Jon will be investigating a number of new training opportunities for installers, as well as managing the introduction of E-Learning modules and web seminars to ensure that installers remain informed ahead of the Energy-related products (ErP) directive due for implementation in September of this year.
Jon said: “It promises to be a busy year for Worcester, not least with the introduction of ErP labelling. This directive will have a far reaching impact on installers, and in the coming months we will look to supply them with everything they need to become the authoritative voice on the topic.
“In addition, we will be expanding the portfolio of modules that we currently offer on our Online Academy, as well as focusing on improvements to the College Links Learning Scheme to ensure that we can bring more localised training to our customers.
“Of course, we will also continue to be on hand for installers wishing to become familiar with new Worcester products and technologies, as part of the provision of opportunities for installers that underpins all we do.”
