Upcoming Training Workshops
These classes are for current and pending VES and Hochiki dealers ONLY. Please do not register if you do not meet this criteria. Contact Keith Morris with any questions.
Deadline for registration of each class is ten calendar days prior to the first day of training.
VES has developed one of the most comprehensive and complete training programs in the industry. As a VES Authorized Dealer, not only will you represent the most technically advanced fire detection systems in the world, you and your staff will have access to this training program yourselves. Your installers and field technicians will benefit greatly from participating in our comprehensive training workshops.
Our staff has designed training that meets the needs of your staff and, unlike other manufacturers we offer this training to you at little or no expense.
Our Technical Training Workshop is designed to give your technicians an in-depth overview of how to program, install, and service the VES line of products and services. Those who successfully complete the workshop are issued personalized, numbered certifications, essential for future technical assistance from the VES staff.
Workshop hours will be 3 days long, from 8:30AM - 4:30PM. Call 800.274.9514 as early as possible to apply for enrollment in the class, or apply online through the training tab on the VES public website www.ves-network.com/training/.
The following material will be provided for all workshop participants:
Loop Explorer Programming Utility Software via Virtual Resource Credentials
VES Training Manual
USB Flash Drive with VES Product Guides and Manuals
Laptops are required.
The goal of our workshops is to provide training for every attendee. We require that participants have a Windows laptop with an RS232 serial port; either built-in or USB serial adapter. USB serial adapters are available from several electronics stores and websites. Attendees may purchase an adapter from VES, but they must notify VES a week before the training class.
IMPORTANT! It is imperative that each registrant has own unique email address for proper credential registration in our Virtual Resources (VR) website, so don’t use a general mailbox. If you don’t already have the credentials, you will receive an email from the VR site so as to permit you an opportunity to complete the LE2 registration and to choose your own passcode. Upon successful completion of this course, you will receive a certificate, letter of hours attended for any CEU needs, and a laminated carry card with your certification number. This certification number will be necessary in order to receive tech support and continued access to LE2. As we transition over to Loop Explorer 2 for all panels in the future, only certified technicians will be able to access and program VES panels. This will aid in minimizing unauthorized parties from tampering with panels and to conform with future requirements for programming security measures.
All training workshops are limited and require reservations. Please complete the following application to reserve your spot. If you need to register more than one person, refresh this page after submitting each form. If you have any questions, contact us.
