Training boost

473 Volvo Construction Equipment has doubled its training capacity with the opening of a new technical training facility at its Duxford base in the UK. Despite the economic downturn, Volvo has continued to invest in training and technical support for its customers, with more than £200,000 being spent on creating two full size training workshops, a component workshop and two interactive classrooms. The company will also be able to offer customers the opportunity to have their own service engineers trained by Volvo trainers, providing an invaluable technical resource for larger fleets.
