Serving as a gateway to South East England, Southampton Airport has launched a new training centre for businesses across the region, as well as further afield thanks to the airport’s strong transport links around the country.
EchoFour, which takes its name from the runway entry/ exit point to the airport’s fire training ground, was brought to life after it was identified that there was a need for a high-quality training resource in the South of England.
Neil Garwood, head of operations at Southampton Airport said: “Here at Southampton Airport we pride ourselves on investing in the local business community. That’s why we’re excited to open our new training centre, EchoFour. So companies from across the region and further afield can easily access high quality training in a unique environment.”
Courses on offer range from first aid and team building, to maritime firefighting and confined-space training in a purpose-built facility, as well as aviation fire training. The facility also offers the opportunity to tailor training courses to meet specific company needs.
