The Luthmore Installer Academy opens at Wiltshire College
Luthmore has announced a new partnership with Wiltshire College & University Centre to deliver hands-on training for installers at its Lackham campus, supporting the next generation of heating professionals and accelerating local upskilling.
In response to growing consumer demand for its flagship product, the initiative will expand Luthmore’s installer training capacity via a dedicated presence within the college’s Green Skills Innovation Centre, alongside practical learning in the Eco House, a full-scale property fitted with low carbon technologies.
The Green Skills Innovation Centre was established to help meet increasing demand for sustainable construction and low-carbon technology skills, providing learners and industry professionals with access to specialist training facilities and real-world learning environments.
The programme is designed to address the growing demand for skilled installers, with the first week’s cohort already fully subscribed. Six to seven training places were made available, all of which were quickly filled, underlining strong demand from installers across the region, and beyond, to upskill on new systems.
Initially, the training will focus on supporting qualified installers, providing small group sessions that allow individuals to gain hands-on experience in installation, commissioning and fault finding in a real-world scenario. Longer-term, the partnership opens the door to deeper integration into college courses, helping to inspire future entrants into the sector.
