LG Electronics (LG) is expanding its Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) Academy network to strengthen the installation and service capabilities of its global HVAC business, the company said.
The company has opened new facilities and relocated existing ones across key markets in Asia, Europe, Latin America (LATAM), and the Middle East and Africa (MEA), helping develop local HVAC expertise and support consistent service delivery across countries as part of its Global South strategy.
As part of this global expansion, the LG MEA Hub Academy serves as one of the Middle East and Africa's largest HVAC training and testing facilities, reflecting LG's commitment to strengthening technical expertise, enhancing customer service, and supporting the continued development of the region's HVAC industry, it said.
Located in the UAE, the LG MEA Hub Academy serves as a regional centre for technical education, hands-on product experience and customer engagement, supporting partners across the Middle East and Africa. The facility also features dedicated customer experience zones showcasing LG's latest HVAC Solutions, Air Purification systems, Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV DX) technologies, and other innovative products, allowing customers and partners to experience LG's advanced technologies first-hand while receiving practical technical training.
Beyond product demonstrations, the LG MEA Hub Academy delivers certification-based technical training programs for contractors, facility management professionals and service engineers. Covering installation, commissioning and troubleshooting, these hands-on programs equip industry professionals with the expertise needed to ensure reliable system performance, improve service quality and support customers throughout the lifecycle of LG HVAC solutions.
Additionally, as part of its commitment to developing future industry talent, LG partners with universities across the UAE to deliver HVAC course programs for senior engineering students. By combining academic learning with practical industry experience, these initiatives help prepare the next generation of engineers while supporting the long-term growth of the HVAC industry across the region.
LG operates approximately 70 HVAC Academies in over 40 countries, with regional hub academies responsible for developing localized training content and training instructors for neighbouring markets. Together, these academies provide essential technical education for customers, distributors and industry professionals, helping strengthen local capabilities while ensuring consistent service standards worldwide.
"As the HVAC industry across the Middle East and Africa continues to evolve, developing highly skilled technical professionals is essential to delivering reliable, efficient, and sustainable solutions," said Yong Joon (Michael) Park, VP LG MEA ES Division.
"The LG MEA Hub Academy reflects our commitment to investing in local talent, strengthening service excellence, and equipping our partners with the expertise needed to support customers throughout the entire lifecycle of their HVAC systems. Through continuous training and knowledge sharing, we aim to contribute to the growth of a stronger and more capable HVAC ecosystem across the region." - TradeArabia News Service
