Hycom Training Academy

Welcome to our Install Training Academy

Hygienic Wall Cladding Programmes

Come learn from our 30 years of experience in Hygienic Wall Cladding Installs. Initial room layout; from small shower rooms to working at height, complex template and thermoforming works, trimmed or welded joins, and an introduction to the integration of hygienic floor and ceiling products. All programmes are led by a long-term Hycom technical expert and participant numbers are kept to a minimum.

Hygienic Flooring Programmes

New for this year, we will be introducing a Vinyl Flooring Laying programme. There are many considerations to take into account before the choice of flooring product can be made and we are here to provide you with our vast experience. Our long-term Hycom floor installers will be your perfect guides.

Hygienic Ceiling Programme

We have introduced two types of Hygienic Install programmes for applicants this year. One is for the layout and installation of PVC plank ceilings, and another to cover the many types and applications of a hanging grid ceiling. All of our programmes will cover product knowledge and choice relative to each environment/problem, specific expert install training and more.
