When it comes to staying on top of industry standards and expanding your skill set, training is invaluable. But let’s be honest—training isn’t always cheap. That’s why we’re proud to offer an incredible benefit to our Automatic Door Installation Association (ADIA) members: free courses that can help them stay sharp, compliant, and competitive without the usual costs.
Here’s how it works and why you should take advantage of it.
One Free Course per Year for Installer Members
ADIA Installer Members receive one free course every year, providing an easy way to stay current without reaching into your own pockets. Whether you’re looking to complete a BS EN16005 refresher, enhance your expertise in safety standards, or wish to learn about access control, there’s no reason not to jump at this benefit. It’s a little perk that goes a long way towards keeping you at the top of your game. And it can save you up to £350 + VAT.
Our courses are designed to help engineers address real-world challenges in the field, meaning every hour you spend in training is an investment in your daily work. When applying, simply select that you wish this to be a free course.
Extra Perks: Free Fire Door and Gate & Barrier Courses for All Members
Our commitment to supporting safe and effective installations extends beyond Installer Members. Every ADIA member company—whether installer, supplier, or sole trader—receives one free Fire Door course and one Gate & Barrier course each year.
Why fire doors? Fire doors play a critical role in the safety of any building, and proper installation and maintenance can make all the difference in an emergency. Our Fire Door course equips engineers with essential knowledge of fire door installation and maintenance, ensuring you meet both safety and regulatory standards.
Gates and barriers are often complex installations with unique risks. Our Gate & Barrier course provides practical insights into these systems, focusing on the safety protocols that engineers need to know. With more companies and customers prioritising high safety standards, these skills are valuable for enhancing your service offerings and reputation.
The ADIA Health & Safety Package
Alongside these free courses, ADIA members gain access to the ADIA Health & Safety Package, a comprehensive resource designed to make H&S compliance straightforward and stress-free. This package provides essential risk assessment templates, safety checklists, and policies tailored specifically for automatic door engineers and companies. It’s everything you need to maintain a safe working environment and comply with regulatory standards—all at no extra cost for ADIA members.
With the ADIA Health & Safety Package, members get the peace of mind of knowing that they’re not just compliant but fully equipped to manage H&S requirements without hassle. By integrating this resource into your practice, you can streamline your approach to safety while focusing more on the work that matters.
A Cost-Effective Way to Stand Out
In a field that’s constantly evolving, engineers need every advantage to stay relevant. With our free course offerings, ADIA members don’t just keep up—they stay ahead. The skills you gain from these courses can set you apart from the competition, making your services even more appealing to clients looking for trained, qualified professionals.
Not only do our courses help you upskill, but they’re also a fantastic way to show clients that your team is committed to the highest standards of safety and quality.
A Membership That Pays Off
At ADIA, we know that our members work hard to install and maintain systems that keep people safe and buildings accessible. Our free courses are just one way of giving back, making membership a true asset for engineers at all stages of their careers.
So if you’re an ADIA member, remember: there’s no need to pay extra for essential training. Claim your free course and keep moving forward with the knowledge, skills, and confidence you need to thrive in the industry.
