The participating members of staff are from a range of departments across Roman including; Customer Services, Export, R & D, Sales Support and Production Engineering.
All those who sat the test passed first time, with Roman’s Customer Services Manager and Export Manager both achieving 100%.
The BMA core merit certificates are designed to equip retailers, merchants and installers with essential product knowledge to enable them to meet consumers’ needs. They were useful to Roman staff to give them a better understanding of all the different types of shower enclosures and trays on the market, along with the individual advantages and disadvantages of these products.
Alongside shower enclosures and trays, participants can also study for core merit certificates in Shower Controls, Sanitaryware & Fittings, Baths and Brassware. The guides and tests have been written by industry experts and approved by BMA members.
David Osborne, Managing Director of Roman, comments; “I was keen for Roman staff to sit the BMA tests because it is important that they have an excellent understanding of not only Roman’s enclosures and trays, but of these products in general. We also felt it was important to support this initiative by the BMA as it is an excellent way for retailers, merchants and installers to excel in their field. All those who participated in the tests found them a challenge, but certainly got a lot out of them. They gained a diverse understanding of all shower enclosures and trays available in the market place.”
