BMS Services is proud to announce the opening of a new training centre, the first of its kind, aimed at addressing the shortage of skilled labour in the busbar installation niche market. With the construction industry booming since the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for skilled workers has never been higher. BMS Services is stepping in to bridge the gap and provide a new generation of skilled professionals to the industry.
The training centre, located in Basingstoke, was a comprehensive 3-week course in Busbar installation, electrical safety, and hands-on training. The course was designed to guarantee employment with a starting salary of £30,000 upon successful completion of two theoretical and one practical exam.
BMS Services took the initiative to provide opportunities for six young men, four of whom were previously on benefits, to attend the training program at a cost of £2800 per attendee. BMS work directly for leading manufacturers such as Schneider, Siemens, and Legrand, to provide the program.
Carol Sullivan, HR and Finance Director, says, “It is BMS Services’ goal to have this training program accredited by the CITB. Currently, there is no recognised training program for Busbar and Switchgear installations in the UK or worldwide, and the company is committed to filling this void and providing a much-needed service to the industry”.
The training centre will also have the capacity to offer bespoke training programs tailored to individual and company needs.
