LG Electronics USA recently opened its new LG Training Academy in Roswell, Ga., to support the company’s commercial air conditioner business. At 16,000 square feet, this state-of-the art facility has the capability to train hundreds of engineers, contractors, and technicians each month.

Michael Ahn, president and CEO, LG Electronics North America, called the new Roswell location “a symbol of LG’s growth and vitality” in North America.

“This is another important milestone in LG’s tremendous expansion in the United States. Particularly noteworthy now during the U.S. recession is LG’s investment in the communities where we live and work and our commitment to economic development and education here in the greater Atlanta area,” he said.

LG’s new training academy will provide a variety of courses for engineers, contractors, technicians, and air conditioning sales managers. Attendees will have the option of participating in shorter half-day courses to more intensive five-day training sessions.
