Argo Mobile Repair Team (Argo MRT) and Advanced Composites Training (ACT) have joined hands to deliver the most comprehensive hands-on training curriculum in composites available worldwide. The collaboration will help the two companies support aircraft structural repairs, and provide education and employment opportunities for composites technicians.

Specialising in composite and metallic repairs, Argo MRT provides a first-class worldwide service, and is known in the aviation industry for its flexible and skilled team of professionals, bringing decades of experience from a broad base of aerospace backgrounds.

Says Jeremy Bateson, head of Engineering at Argo MRT, “Collaborating with ACT to deliver these highly accredited composite repair courses from our dedicated training facility in Devon is an exciting development for Argo MRT and we look forward to combining our expertise to further enhance our business offerings. This relationship with ACT underscores our customer-focused commitment to delivering premium composite repair services and our commitment to investing in the continued development of this field.”

Based in London, Ontario Canada, ACT is an international leader in delivering the highest standard of approved and accredited composites training for civilian and military technicians and engineers alike. These courses, which provide trainees with the skill set to perform composite repairs in a number of industries including aviation, aerospace, automotive, marine and renewables, are set to be well received in the UK, Germany and the EMEA region.

Wilson Boynton (CET), president at ACT comments, “Teaming up with Argo MRT will enable us to deliver our globally renowned training courses in the UK, Germany and beyond. We are excited to be working with Argo MRT, a company that shares our vision of providing first class composite repairs. Established in 1996, ACT has acquired a diverse range of composites knowledge and we are committed to staying current with the latest improvements in composite technologies, delivering state-of-the-art training techniques and unparalleled course syllabi.”

This collaboration will enable both companies to build new opportunities for supporting aircraft structural repairs, with education and employment opportunities for composites technicians.

The ACT courses will be hosted at Argo MRT’s training facility in Devon in the Southwest of England. The first course will be held later this year.
