The facility cost £1.4 million and is the fulfillment of a year-long plan by Unetversity training director Andy Rowe and his team. With 22,000 square feet of floor space, the new Slough site provides a bright, airy environment. Seven sound-insulated classrooms, each fitted with the ‘Smartboard’ technology, offer good facilities for theory instruction. Meanwhile, the the workshop on the ground floor boasts six learning centres, allowing delegates to get more ‘hands-on’ experience.
Launched in the UK in 2009, Unetversity has been restructured to offer a refreshed collection of high-tech training, leading to certification. This includes a comprehensive suite of web-based learning, creating a library of nearly 100 individual modules registering over 5000 completions in 2010. Already recognised as a training centre for Fiats, Unetversity recently added Chrysler and Jeep to the coaching work it already does with Alfa Romeo, Fiat Professional and Abarth vehicles.
“We help people to discover information themselves – as discovery leads to a more permanent learning experience. From the moment you walk into the new training centre, you get a feel for what we are trying to do,” says Andy Rowe.
“Its light, minimalist appearance and superb classroom areas create a feeling of professionalism throughout. Our aim is to help each delegate realise their full potential. We are now training more people than ever before and doing it better than ever before, and I am looking forward to many years of great success here,” Rowe added.
