Training for success

 Education, education, education… and why it’s so important
Being successful in your career is about more than fitting a heating or cooling system. It is about the day runningsmoothly from start to finish. It is having the knowledge and support to fix things when there is an issue. It is providing solutions that improve your customers’ lives and the efficiency of your company, building a sustainable business for the future, and being supported by an innovative brand you can trust that offers more than high-quality climate systems. 

That is where Samsung comes in. Samsung is a manufacturer that is committed to helping its installers ensure smooth daily operations by removing unnecessary obstacles, enabling you to take your climate business to the next level. 

Our continued innovation in comfort cooling, renewable heating, chilled water and hybrid technology is redefining industry standards, and our pledge is to share technical knowledge and help develop the skill sets that engineers require to make the most out of the estimated £300 million opportunities that our industry offers every year.

Face to face: As a business, Samsung offers comprehensive training packages at two training academies located in the UK (Chertsey Surrey and Mansfield Nottinghamshire), with further specialised training offered at our European HQ training centre in Schiphol, Netherlands. Typical course delegate numbers are limited to 10 to 12 engineers to promote an intimate relationship between the trainer and trainees, offering hands on, practical sessions with product and one to one face time with our experts. The central theme for all of our courses is to ensure that participants get the most out of their day with us, with group interaction actively encourage get participants asking questions.

This is why we have developed our education portal which offers over 12 courses, developed by our experts. To access our education portal, you must be a Samsung climate solutions expert. The portal allows you to search for online courses, led by our experienced trainers, and to test your climate solutions knowledge, and more.
