Learning from the Master

This week we hosted a training session for growers who wanted to learn more about managing their glasshouse climates with the Priva Integro climate control computer.

The participants were existing users of Integro, and Peter Mos of Priva was on hand to deliver the training.

Peter Mos

Although Peter is renowned for his skills in energy management, he also proved to be an extremely competent trainer in the general issues that surround climate management. The course participants were treated to a wealth of information from Peter that provided a great insight in to how to get more from individual systems.

Taking in the knowledge.................

Whilst most growers know what they know, there is also a train of thought that most growers may not know what they don't know! The course was fundamentally designed to 'open the eyes' of the growers so that they could realise more potential from their systems. And the final outcome certainly proved this to be the case.

There are now plans to deliver more of these joint Priva / Chisholm training courses to equip growers with knowledge in a short time frame, that can then be translated back to the workplace.

Further details will be placed on the blog, but if you are interested in specific issues relating to Priva training, please contact Tony via e mail at tony.bundock@chisholm.edu.au
