Training – Lifting Equipment Engineers Association

 

The Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) is launching a one-day training course designed to offer an introduction to the overhead lifting sector. 
 
The LEEA services include training, accreditation and technical advice, and this course will be led by the LEEA’s team of trainers. The Lifting Equipment Familiarisation Seminar aims to provide attendees with an overview of commonly used lifting equipment and accessories, as well as an outline of relevant UK legislation and regulations. 
 
The course is open to all employees of LEEA member companies, and according to the association, is ideally suited to staff who work in administrative roles, and who may benefit from a better understanding of the products and services that they deal with. 
 
For the more technically oriented, the course could also serve as the first step towards a long-term career in the test, examination and maintenance of overhead lifting equipment, via the LEEA’s industry-recognised diploma qualification programme. 
 
The new Lifting Equipment Familiarisation Seminar can be held at the LEEA’s purpose-built training centre in Huntingdon, or any suitable premises worldwide. 
 
The association’s facilities incorporate a range of operational lifting equipment in a workshop environment, alongside dedicated classroom space kitted out with AV technology. 
 
An introductory video can be viewed on the LEEA’s YouTube channel by searching for ‘LEEAInt’. 
 
The full details of the new course will be made available at the LEEA’s dedicated trade show, LiftEx 2013 at the USN Bolton Arena on  14-15 November.
 
Alternatively, for more information contact the LEEA directly on 01480 432801, get in touch via email at [email protected], or visit their website at www.leeaint.com
