There are contracts where the client will wish to apply the coating solution themselves but the coating technology is alien to them. No problem. Blocksil prides itself on offering a comprehensive solution and this includes training for your applicators.

The level of training we offer will be very dependent on the client’s requirements, so it will be bespoke and may include ongoing refresher courses if need be.

Training will be a mixture of classroom and practical and will be provided by our Chief Technical Officer. This can be at your works, on site or at our premises. We can also provide high quality photography of the training sessions.

Within the heading of training would be sessions where we give detailed reviews of our coatings and services to architects, surveyors and engineers. In some cases our clients have used these sessions as part of a CPD programme.

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is the term used to describe the learning activities professionals engage in to develop and enhance their abilities. It enables learning to become conscious and proactive, rather than passive and reactive. CPD combines different methodologies to learning, such as training workshops, conferences and events, e-learning programs, best practice techniques and ideas sharing, all focused for an individual to improve and have effective professional development.

Engaging in Continuing Professional Development ensures that both academic and practical qualifications do not become out-dated or obsolete; allowing individuals to continually ‘up skill’ or ‘re-skill’ themselves, regardless of occupation, age or educational level.

Blocksil is happy to help where we can and we have CPD UK approved seminars, one for the construction industry and one for the rail industry.
