IRISS announces Traincation program

Train at SMART and take a vacation in sunny Florida

October 1, 2013

IRISS, a leader in the industrial infrared (IR) window for electrical safety and electrical maintenance training market, announced today their newest program to cross promote their SMART Academy and Bradenton, FL, as the premier destination for a Traincation.

“We are blessed to be in an area thriving with tourist attractions,” states Martin Robinson, IRISS CEO.  “Not to mention the draw of the award winning white sandy beaches and warm weather for the upcoming winter months.”  Robinson continues, “We recognized this opportunity to develop a program to promote our electrical maintenance training in conjunction with highlighting attractions our students would enjoy.”

IRISS’ SMART Academy provides electrical maintenance courses that deliver hands-on experience with theory, industry best practices, and safety. Their state-of-the-art training facility features simulated equipment including switchgear and transformers. These labs provide students both inspection and maintenance training to ensure electrical assets are properly sustained.

Anyone who registers for a Traincation at IRISS’ SMART Academy will receive a $50 gift certificate for one of 5 Must-Do attractions around Bradenton, FL.  Attractions include an elevated adventure course, fishing charter, amusement center and two waterfront restaurants.

There are seven courses taught through IRISS’s Safety and Maintenance Academy of Reliability Technologies or SMART Academy.  These courses provide students and their companies the knowledge and practical experience necessary to complete electrical inspections safely and efficiently.  Additional courses include Energized Electrical Maintenance, Level I Infrared Electrical Certification, Level II Infrared Electrical Certification, IRISS Certified Installer, and Customized On-Site Training Solutions Auditing Electrical Assets, Jump-Start IR Window Program, and Installation Support of IR Windows.  In addition to training available at the SMART Training Academy, IRISS offers on-site or regional classes.
