NeWs Qualified hydraulics technician<br />

LiFeLonG LearninG<br />

training as a hydraulics technician at the iha opens up Many opportunities<br />

Mario JaNss Has eVery reasoN to sMile he has<br />

successfully completed the training course to become a<br />

“qualified hydraulics technician” at the iHa.<br />

Mario Janß has been working for hansa-fleX<br />

since 2003. he started as a driver for the<br />

fleXXpress hydraulics immediate response<br />

service, and is now deputy manager of industrial<br />

assembly in hamburg and a service technician for<br />

industrial assembly and plant construction. Besides<br />

these demanding activities, Mario Janß also attended<br />

the iha training course that would lead to<br />

his qualification as a hydraulics technician. he passed<br />

the course with distinction. in the following interview,<br />

he describes his views on the course content.<br />

Mr. Janß, why did you decide to take the training<br />

course to become a qualified hydraulics technician<br />

(HFk)?<br />

someone mentioned to me while i was at a seminar<br />

in dresden that this hfk qualification course was<br />

being offered. it sounded interesting. so i found<br />

out more details about it and submitted a written<br />

application to my regional manager, Mr. krampitz.<br />

Mr. krampitz approved it and forwarded it immediately.<br />

he was extremely supportive throughout the<br />

entire training course.<br />

How do you rate the content of the course?<br />

the material covered in the hfk training course is<br />

very extensive. each topic area is discussed down to<br />

the smallest detail, and where possible this theoretical<br />

knowledge was reinforced with practical exercises.<br />

our trainee group was extremely demanding,<br />

and the trainers had to put in an enormous amount<br />

of overtime. i would also like to express my sincere<br />

thanks once again to the iha team!<br />

Now you can step back a bit: How has the training<br />

course you have just completed helped you in<br />

your work for the company?<br />

i have become a great deal more self-confident when<br />

dealing with customers. customers certainly feel<br />

more confident that they are in good hands as well<br />

when they find that the “hydraulics technician” they<br />

speak to on the phone is sure of himself, and knows<br />

what he is about.<br />

How did you manage the extra workload? after<br />

all, you had to resume your existing responsibilities<br />

for HaNsa-FleX in between training weeks.<br />

it’s true, the workload was huge. almost all of the<br />

participants had stopped studying many years ago,<br />

so the first thing you had to do was learn how to<br />

learn again. the weekends were always very short,<br />

and the three weeks sometimes went by faster than<br />

we would have lliked. i used to set off back to dresden<br />

with my colleague at about midday on sunday, and<br />

we would quiz each other on the way down, because<br />

we knew that we had a four-hour test every Monday<br />

at the iha. this was how they tested whether we had<br />

understood the training material and had studied at<br />

home.<br />

Which employees do you think would benefit<br />

from this training course?<br />

i think that the hfk training is to be recommended<br />

for fleXXpress vehicle drivers and service technicians.<br />

But also for anyone who deals with hydraulic<br />

systems as part of his working life and is interested in<br />

getting a sound training in hydraulics.<br />

the training course you attended was associated<br />

with certain costs for your employers.<br />

How does your training benefit your employer<br />

HaNsa-FleX aG?<br />

i think that the customer feels more confident that<br />

he is in good hands, which means that he is more inclined<br />

to call us again if he has another problem with<br />

his hydraulics. it is also an advantage that we learn<br />

about more than just hoses in the training course. We<br />

learn about everything that hansa-fleX has to offer.<br />

When you're dealing with customers, you don't<br />

walk around with blinkers, you point out things that<br />

the customer had perhaps not thought about before.<br />

that can be beneficial for everyone.<br />
