John Coursey joined the access control and video intercom company in May, having previously worked in the technology industry, training users of smart devices and wireless products. He will be providing practical, hands-on training for Paxton’sNet2 system at distributor locations and dealers' premises.

He said, “In the move from smart devices to the security industry, I chose Paxton because of the world-class team I’d be joining. The array of user-friendly and aesthetically appealing products, plus the company’s devotion to creating a positive culture and work environment, made it top of my list.

Increasing demand for dealer training

John’s appointment comes at a time of increasing demand for Paxton’s dealer training - 2018 was a record year globally, which saw over 3,000 dealers trained in the United States alone. Already this year, over 1,500 dealers have gone through free Net2 installation workshops – good news for dealers who boost their knowledge of the products, and for Paxton, who know that 9 out of 10 trained dealers go on to regularly install Paxton products for their clients.

Eileen Reed, US Field Training Manager commented, “We’re excited to have John join our team. He’ll be working closely with our dealers on the West coast by providing them with the training they need to offer their customers with the best solutions.
