ENDORSEMENT FOR BPMA TRAINING
BPMA SIGNS MEMBERSHIP SWAP WITH HHIC
THREE NEW COMPANIES HAVE JOINED THE BRITISH Pump Manufacturers Association (BPMA) since the last issue of flow. Most recent is Essex-based Pump & Motors UK, a service and maintenance provider to the building services industry. Pressboost Ltd, a specialist pressurisation and boosted water services company, has also recognised the benefits available to BPMA members. While the third organisation to engage with the BPMA is the Heating & Hotwater Industry Council (HHIC), which has agreed a reciprocal membership agreement. February saw the BPMA team attend Floodex and they had a busy couple of days talking to visitors and exhibitors at this popular exhibition. Meanwhile, the Association’s training offer has been expanded for 2020 with the addition of a series of management training workshops. Stand-alone courses covering communication skills, finance for non-financial managers and management essentials, aimed at those individuals within the pump sector who have been newly promoted or are completely new to a management role, are being held from April this year with details available at www.bpma.org.uk/lectures. And, to reinforce the value in the BPMA’s training, the Association is delighted to have had its Introduction to Pumping Technology and Essentials of Pumping Technology e-learning training courses endorsed by the Joint Industry Board for Plumbing Mechanical Engineering Services in England and Wales.
THE BRITISH PUMP Manufacturer’s Association (BPMA) has agreed a reciprocal membership agreement with the Heating & Hotwater Industry Council (HHIC). The HHIC is the industry voice for the UK domestic heating and hot water industry. It operates 16 working groups which collectively cover the full spectrum of technical and commercial influences affecting this important aspect of the energy industry. HHIC is a key part of the Energy & Utilities Alliance (EUA) – a not-for-profit trade association that provides a leading industry voice to help shape the future policy direction within the energy sector. Stewart Clements, Director at the HHIC said of the arrangement: “Although we each have our quite specific roles to play and memberships to serve, it is clear that in certain areas there are commonalities of interest, and so I very much welcome this agreement, and look forward to developing some shared initiatives.”
