Essential Gear Courses:
The ongoing support from BGA Members has been crucial to our training efforts and thanks to this online training will be completely free for BGA Members throughout 2025. This initiative guarantees first-class training, helping those in industry to acquire and secure the skills necessary secure and enhance the Gear Industry.
We have 2 upcoming courses to whet your appetite:

In 2024 BGA Members relayed that there was a lack of Gear training on Bevel Gears and Polymer Gears. We have been working hard to fill these gaps and courses on both subjects will be available to Members in 2025.

Technical Awareness Networking Days:
The world of technology is always changing. For all of us in the fast moving Gear and Transmission Industry staying up to date is crucial. In 2024, Technical Awareness Networking Days became an important platform, bringing together industry peers to discuss both challenges and successes they face.
In partnership with BGA Member Transmission Dynamics we are organising a Technical Networking Day at their state of the art facility on Cramlington in Spring 2025. Stay tuned to the BGA Website where we will release full details soon.
