Refrigeration Skillnet

 

The Project

 

To deliver bespoke industry specific training

 

The Brief

 

SERC staff had previously developed specific training for the Refrigeration industry in Northern Ireland taking the industry-standard training period of 5 days to a new 2-day delivery representing a £275,000 saving to the industry. SERC was approached by Refrigeration Skillnet to provide this training at their Dublin base as no other training provider could offer this type of saving to the industry.

 

The Solution

 

SERC staff provided the training to industry workers, and have to date, provided training to over 200 individuals

 

The Outcome

 

The industry continues to have the latest innovation in training which is leading to improved standards throughout the industry.  Also as the training can now be provided in a shorter course, students are able to return to work sooner, saving these companies money.

 

John Nixon, Head of School for Engineering Services at SERC added:


“To date through partnering with Refrigeration Skillnet Ireland and delivering training both online and onsite in Dublin, we have saved engineers approximately £64,500.  This approach, combined with the expert knowledge and dedication of the staff involved, means that we are professionalising the refrigeration workforce across Ireland.”
