Beckhoff training centers Beckhoff Schulungscenter

More training requires more space
The growth of Beckhoff sales has created large demand for training and thus more space is needed. Beckhoff Germany has responded, in the usual fast way, by relocating the training centers to a new facility in Gütersloh. The new facility is approximately 8 km away from the original headquarters location. The new location will allow for two parallel training sessions, thus meeting the new demand for training. The training team is located in the IT Academy building which is centrally located. Ulrich Laker, training manager at Beckhoff, commented on the new training location by saying “As usual, all future training for Beckhoff components will be carried out under the guidance of experienced Beckhoff staff.”

A catering service provides refreshments for the participants during breaks; lunch is taken in the nearby restaurant. The training center has optimum transport connections: Gütersloh main station is approximately 7 minutes‘ walk away from the IT Academy. A car park is available directly outside the IT Academy.
