“I have found the Rain Bird Academy training courses to be very informative, well planned, and efficient in providing the essential information needed to apply to the products and systems in a real-life scenario. Furthermore, the technical support I have received is also most helpful in providing the best solutions and design options for unusual or difficult situations on several projects requiring a documented irrigation system.”

“I was thrown into the fire with the Maxicom system two years ago with no training. I enrolled in the Maxicom Level 2 class due to its proximity to my location. Having not taken (Maxicom) Level 1, I felt a little intimidated by the process. However, the instructor was extremely helpful working one-on-one to get me up to speed. I now feel fairly confident utilizing all aspects Maxicom has to offer. I have re-programmed all schedules (48 clocks over 80 acres) to water more effectively and efficiently. I look forward to the opportunity to take (Maxicom) Level 3.”

“Rain Bird Academy provides industry specific training that is vital to the success of a field technician, business owner, and designers alike. The information (provided in class) is vital for the proper application of advanced technologies needed in today's competitive market place. Also many consumers are now realizing that water savings are energy savings as well, and they are looking for contractors, designers, and service companies who provide water efficient solutions.”

“Anyone who is committed to the (irrigation) industry and has a desire to improve his or her interaction in the industry has a responsibility to be as informed as possible. In my opinion, there is no better place to get this knowledge than from the experts in the industry. Take and absorb all the schooling that you can. Rain Bird Academy has always been able to provide the training that I have wanted.”

“The hands-on training class for Maxicom (Hardware) was great. I spent 2 years fumbling my way through it in the field and after the training; I have had very few problems with watering or lighting controls. This has reduced the need for someone to be called out (on a service call) because the ball field lights did not power on. I am looking forward to the advanced training class.”

"Rain Bird is committed to increasing irrigation knowledge within the market. They have shown everyone at TLC where the industry is headed and got them excited about the opportunities that are out there. Without a doubt, I would tell anyone that the Rain Bird Training Program is an investment that they should make."

"I walked into Rain Bird’s Irrigation Training Camp with no experience. There was a mix of irrigation knowledge among the attendees. Upon completion of the course, everyone walked away having learned something they could use. The instructor did a great job relating the topics covered to all different levels of experience. His balance of book knowledge with field experience was that of a seasoned teacher. After finishing the class, I was able to install a system having never done it before."
