The importance of being experts (of Effer cranes)

Effer trains its partners’ technicians in accordance with “train the trainer” philosophy: the best technical figures can participate in the courses Bologna headquarters, both attending theoretical lessons and practical application on the cranes. Once they go back to their workshops, they can share the new knowledge with their colleagues.

About our training offer and resuslts achieved in these years, we interviewed our teacher at Effer Academy, Mauro Rovinetti:
-Mauro, which is your thought about Effer Academy evolution since its birth?
“In 2016 we have seen an outstanding increase in the number of participants compared to other editions, and for us this is an important confirmation from our worldwide sales network. The appreciation by trained people grew over time as well: from 2013, when it was 82%, we reached 90% in 2016. For us this means that we are actually reaching high standards of training for such a specific target as technical staff.
