Aico devises bespoke training for electrical distributors
18 March 2024
AICO HAS launched its Expert Distributor Training. This bespoke course is configured specifically for electrical distributors and aims to provide an in-depth understanding of industry standards, regulations and legislation, as well as relevant products and technology.

The new course from the life safety systems manufacturer is free and open to all Electrical Distributor Association (EDA) members, affording attendees 30 minutes of Fire Industry Association (FIA)-accredited Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
In essence, the course provides an overview of legislation and grading, alarms and sensor types, in addition to a detailed look into Aico’s full product range. The desire is to assist in the promotion of Best Practice within the industry.
The course explores examples of the diverse housing stock here in the UK and the possible product specification needs of different end users. With industry technology and products constantly evolving, it’s vital that distributors are up-to-date with the latest legislation, products and solutions, providing consumers with the best possible advice and recommendations.
This type of training ensures distributors are committed to promoting current Best Practice and procedures for domestic alarm and sensor installations. This collaboration promotes knowledgeable industry professionals working together to create safer, healthier and more sustainable homes.
Through time, Aico has already supported upwards of 40,900 electricians and contractors via its award-winning Expert Installer Training. This FIA CPD-certified training course ensures attendees have a full understanding of domestic fire and carbon monoxide alarms and how to install them.
