A sound training program is an essential component of any successful organization’s business plan. At Bergelectric, education and training are considered top investments for continued success, supporting our employees and our company in three fundamental ways:

• Overall Safety –training improves the safety of our employees, our customers, and the public at large
• Enhanced Performance –a skilled worker performs faster, smarter and better
• Improved Profit – fewer safety concerns and increased productivity mean a more profitable job for everyone.

Still in its formative years, Bergelectric recognized the importance of continuing education for its skilled workforce but also understood the difficult task of motivating staff to seek increased knowledge and improved skills. Berg’s top management believed that by creating a free, in-house training program, utilizing Berg’s master craftsmen as mentors and teachers, and providing incentives for successful completion, employees were more likely to participate. And so BergAcademy was launched.
