Passionate about training in the Middle East
LEEA is passionate about training, which it provides directly, both face-to-face and through e-learning via the Internet, writes Amro Hassan, LEEA Regional Manager – Middle East. It also supports members in the Middle East region when they train their customers – the end users. Training makes people more employable but our industry does not just have jobs, it has careers, and when they are employed, we want people to have the training that leads to a successful career, so LEEA training is designed to support our members’ professional growth.
The LEEA Training Academy empowers individuals and organisations by providing the knowledge and tools to deliver safer, smarter lifting operations across industries. A full suite of training is offered, from basic rigging to advanced equipment inspection. It supports continuous development through CPD for member employees. With tailored programmes and globally recognised qualifications, our training helps teams perform with greater confidence and consistency. Members can train their teams their way: in-person, on-site, or online. They can build a qualified workforce with LEEA diplomas and TEAM cards – proof of industry-recognised competence.
It is easy to think of training as simply attending a classroom and achieving a formal qualification, but there should be a culture of competence associated to it. While LEEA training involves a knowledge test to show the trainee knows key elements of a topic, it is designed primarily to ensure somebody is competent, rather than simply being able to recollect knowledge.
