EPC Power selected Marble Hill Partner as the provider for the project to develop new effective hybrid training solution for customer trainings. Project was delivered from March to August in 2022.
Project target was set to produce materials and create optimized online courses to enable effective product training. The trainings need to also support personnel certification and authorization process as defined by EPC Power Service training path.
“Yes, probably the most important thing for us is that it saves time and resources when part of the training takes place remotely and the material is well thought out. For the same reason, the effectiveness of training is also better and customers are more satisfied with the training.
Marko Harju
Likewise, the fact that one can return to the material has been praised by our customers.”
