Fire-Lite Alarms Expands Training Course Offerings

Fire-Lite Alarms by Honeywell’s 2011 training schedule has been expanded to cover three courses and a large number of locations. Its three courses cover all aspects of fire alarm installation and maintenance. Many of the 116 sessions set to take place throughout the United States include hands-on installation and programming, using the latest equipment from Fire-Lite Alarms and Honeywell Power Products. While all course content has been updated with new products and tools, the two-day "Fire-Lite Systems" class remains free of charge. All attendees qualify to receive Continuing Education Credits.

According to Fire-Lite Alarms' Instructional Curriculum Developer and Trainer, Tom Rosa, increased demand by installers and facility managers for advanced software training led to the creation of a new course offering. "There's an evident need for more in-depth training on system design, programming and submittal calculations, which incorporates a variety of our software utilities," Rosa said. "Fire-Lite systems are increasingly being specified by more-sophisticated designers, so our training program was expanded to support a broader spectrum of applications. That's the reason we continually survey our customers to be sure we satisfy all their training needs."
