Zzeus Training: Record-breaking scores in BS 5839-1 qualification
In July 2024, participants in the BS 5839-1 qualification course at Zzeus Training achieved record-breaking scores.
The course, which has been offered since 2019, saw eleven out of forty delegates scoring 100%, the highest on record.
These high achievers were inducted into the exclusive ‘100% Club,’ a recognition program established by Zzeus Training in 2021.
The club aims to motivate fire alarm engineers by offering incentives for high performance, with a notable rise in average scores from 85% to over 92% since its inception.
Introduction of new awards and recognition
To further encourage excellence, Zzeus Training has introduced the Gold Standard award for candidates achieving scores above 90%.
This initiative has led to increased motivation among participants, with many attending the courses specifically aiming to join the ‘100% Club.’
The new awards have been well-received, and the impact on overall performance is evident in the increasing number of high scores.
The program has successfully fostered a culture of excellence within the fire alarm engineering community.
Notable achievers in July 2024
Among the top performers in July 2024 was Caleb Houston, an 18-year-old Junior Estimator from London-based Pacific Fire & Security.
Houston, one of the youngest to join the ‘100% Club,’ expressed his appreciation for the support he received during the course, stating: “I thoroughly enjoyed the time I spent at the Zzeus course; the staff were always open to questions and were keen to offer help when needed.”
Houston’s achievement highlights the effectiveness of Zzeus Training’s approach in nurturing young talent within the industry.
Comments from Zzeus Training’s leadership
Dr. Tom Brookes, MSc PhD CEng FIET, the Founder and Managing Director of Zzeus Training, emphasized the importance of empowering engineers in their profession.
He stated: “At Zzeus, we focus on empowering engineers. Rather than just issuing a certificate that might end up in a file, we provide something tangible for engineers to display with pride.”
