When it
comes to knowing their stuff GEZE UK staff always give 100 per cent which
has been proven by the results of recent professional exams.
Rachel Cox, Project Design Team Leader and Matt Lovatt,
Field Operations Supervisor, have joined the ‘100 per cent club’ by achieving
maximum marks in their Automatic Door
Suppliers Association (ADSA) BS EN 16005
Authorised Technicians exam.
They are
two of just nine people who have achieved 100 per cent in the history of the
ADSA exam which was introduced in March 2014. Other members of this elite set
include fellow GEZE UK colleagues Dan Stack, Stephen Maynard and Nat Stanswood
who all achieved maximum marks in previous years. This means that more
than half those who gained 100 per cent are GEZE UK employees.
BS EN
16005 is the European Standard that is the code of practice for safety in use
of automatic doors for pedestrian use. All pedestrian automatic doors installed
since April 2013 must comply with the BS EN 16005 standard.
ADSA has
developed the exam to ensure that member’s employees understand and comply with
it. Candidates must achieve 72 per cent to pass.
Kaz
Spiewakowski, GEZE UK managing director, said: “We are very proud of Rachael
and Matt’s achievement. We pride ourselves in the expertise our teams offer to
clients and this goes to prove how committed they are to delivering that. I
would like to wish them the warmest congratulations on their success.”
Said
Dave Hill, managing director of ADSA: “GEZE UK has always provided their
employees with the full one-and-a-half days training package for the Standards
Authorised Technician Course and this has delivered an above average success
rate. Out of 1800 persons who have taken the exam nine have passed with 100 per
cent of which five worked for GEZE UK. This proves the value of face to face
training and the investment GEZE UK have made in education.”
