Why Night School?

At BPCA we understand that with hectic work schedules and lifestyles, finding the time to keep your skills and knowledge up-to-date can be a challenge.

Evening training courses enable you to learn with fewer work interruptions and won't affect your schedule or require you to turn down customers for the day.

Night School courses always receive fantastic feedback and sell out quick!  

Training and Development Manager at BPCA, Karen Dawes, explained:

"Our online classroom delivery format ensures that the training you choose to do through the BPCA Night School will be cost-effective and convenient.

"Each course has been designed with the aim of providing learners with a focused look at specific areas or aspects of pest control.

"We're really pleased at how well these courses were received in 2021 and we're excited to relaunch these evening sessions with our training partner Alex Wade."
