Training Solutions

The best products and systems are useless unless your people possess the knowledge to use them effectively. Horizon offers extensive training options, from convenient online seminars to multi-day, hands-on, onsite courses.

Our trainers not only update your staff on the latest technology; they also show them how to apply our products in your environment for maximum efficiency, savings, and productivity.

Seminars. Your people can train at our location in the operation and maintenance of just about every type of product we supply. Each 2- or 3-hour session may feature hands-on workshops, and can highlight technical details of PLCs, cutting tools, drives, motion control, safety, energy conservation, and similar subjects. Some seminars feature an informal breakfast or lunch where you can network with peers and talk with Horizon staff. For our contractor customers, we also offer early-morning or evening events, which won’t interrupt critical workflows.
