30+ New GLT Agents / Installers and 150+ up and coming up.....Where is your Green Job?

GLT School for the 2009 year kicked off with 32 attendees at the NYC Growing Facility owned by GLT lead growers Plant Connection. The class consisted of mainly existing businesses from NY with leaders from Chicago and Philadelphia coming to attend. The GLT school is one of two parts to becoming GLT certified agent and installer. The school is a day and a half of product training, maintenance, plants, applications, sales and quoting. This portion is minimal hands with little authentic installation experience. The second portion of the training consists of an authentic installation on a real green roof or wall. Designed so the installer in training gets PAID to install they also are supervised by a GLT supervisor who eventually has to sign off on the project, there is no better way to learn than on the job. The course is developed by GLT CEO and licensed teacher George Irwin who is also known as the Green Wall Editor. With the assistance of the GLT network (Plant Connections, GLT Global Grower, Parker Plants for Maintenance) the students get a real authentic perspective of what really goes into a green roof and a green wall. So many times these same people show up to another product training and instead of being trained they pay a fee and get a 2 hour demo and are told to go out and sell. The GLT system of training dictates that everyone of its clients will be serviced by a highly trained installer or agent. Even our agents (Selling agents / non installers) have to be trained so that when they converse with a client they are fully comprehensive.COMING NEXT VANCOUVER
