Beijer Ref UK will officially open its third training academy, in Glasgow, on Thursday 6 November.

Building on the success of its existing venues in Wetherby and Preston, the Beijer Ref Academy, Glasgow launch forms part of the wholesale group's strategic plan to offer top-level training to engineers across the UK.

The event will run from 12noon to 4pm, including a buffet lunch, allowing plenty of time for guests attending the IOR Scotland Annual Dinner in Glasgow later that evening to visit.

John Billson, Managing Director of Beijer Ref UK & Ireland, said: "We are proud of our long-standing commitment to help upskill our industry and improve standards. Glasgow will join our other academies in providing high quality training on the latest innovative and sustainable systems, and our ultimate aim is to ensure every engineer across the UK is no more than two hours away from expert guidance.''

A 25% reduction in prices will be applied to all courses booked on the day, and a wide range of sustainable heating and cooling training rigs will be on display.
