BROMMA ANNOUNCES NEW SCHEDULE OF BROMMA UNIVERSITY SPREADER TRAINING COURSES

Bromma Group has announced an expanded schedule of Bromma University spreader training courses for the summer and fall of 2002. Bromma University is part of Bromma's ongoing After-Sales training initiative, designed to help terminals increase spreader productivity, reduce downtime, an improve container handling profitability.

Bromma University training events run 2, 3, or 4 days, and cover a variety of topics, including general spreader operation, sub-systems, start-up, trouble-shooting, and preventive maintenance.

Upcoming Bromma University courses will focus on Bromma's innovative SCS2 Spreader Control System and Bromma's Mobile Harbour Crane Spreaders.

Bromma University events also provide terminal staff with an invaluable opportunity to exchange information, discuss common problems, and review solutions. Recent participants have included technicians from the Port of Aarhus, the Port of Beirut, and the Port of Southampton. Simon Robinson of Tilbury Container Services has called Bromma University "a very in-depth look into the whole system - well-explained and documented."

Bromma University instruction is typically conducted in English, though translation can be arranged separately.

On-Site & Off-Site Training Available

Bromma University training for large groups can be arranged at specific terminals as required. Off-site upcoming Bromma University events include:
