To help give employees who are new to irrigation the confidence they need to deliver results and quickly contribute to business growth, Hunter Industries has launched the Irrigation Installation Fundamentals Program through Hunter University, its online training portal for professionals.
Learn the Basics of Irrigation System Installation
Offered at no cost, this comprehensive online program provides introductory baseline knowledge on the various components and techniques required to successfully install an irrigation system. Benefits of the program include:

• An overview video and 10 self-paced video courses covering dedicated topics related to proper installation of system components, from site inspection and plan reading to valve wiring and controller installation.
• Participants can learn the information on their own schedule — perfect for onboarding new employees.
• Learners acquire essential knowledge about core products and processes needed to install an efficient, long-lasting irrigation system.
• Participants who successfully complete the program with a score of 80% or better will earn a professional certificate to recognize their achievement.

“Knowledgeable employees require less coaching and are better able to meet project deadlines, deliver excellent customer service, and achieve profit goals,” said Phil Robisch, Training Manager at Hunter Industries. “This program can prepare new hires to work in the field, or in the case of distributor staff, to collaborate more effectively with contractors in the store.”

When coupled with the Hunter Product Technician Program and Irrigation Designer Program, the Irrigation Installation Fundamentals Program provides a solid foundation to prepare learners of any background for success. The new program is available now.
