INVEST IN TRAINING TO GAIN AN EDGE
In the ever-evolving world of painting and decorating, staying ahead of the curve is crucial for professionals who want to maintain a competitive edge. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by investing in training courses that provide access to the latest tools and equipment. Here, Vickie Mather, Dulux Academy & Dulux Select Decorators Lead at AkzoNobel, explains the importance of choosing a training provider with strong supplier partnerships.
When selecting a training provider, choosing one that has strong supplier partnerships is highly beneficial. These relationships reflect the provider’s dedication to offering the latest and most effective tools and equipment to their delegates. Whether it’s advancements in paint technology, new tools, or improved application techniques, staying informed about these developments enables decorators to deliver more efficient and higher-quality services, distinguishing themselves from competitors.
What’s more, this hands-on experience with new tools is invaluable, as it allows decorators to test innovations and identify the best options for their specific needs. It also helps them to understand which tools deliver the best results for various techniques and finishes, all before making an investment.
Training courses also provide a platform for networking with other professionals in the industry. These connections can lead to the exchange of ideas and best practices, further enhancing a decorator’s skill set and knowledge base.
Investing in training courses is a strategic move for painters and decorators who want to stay ahead in a competitive industry. Access to the latest tools and equipment, the ability to trial products before purchasing, and the opportunity to stay informed about industry innovations are just a few of the benefits. By prioritising continuous learning and development, decorators can ensure they are always at the forefront of their craft, delivering exceptional results for their clients.
