Orkin Learning Center
Orkin has long been recognized for its intensive training. No investment in employees has defined Orkin’s commitment more visibly than the Orkin Learning Center. The Atlanta facility includes a mock hotel room, restaurant kitchen, hospital room, bar, food storage warehouse, food retail aisle, rooftop air ducts and other “real-world” settings to provide trainees with the hands-on experience they need to meet the specialized challenges of commercial environments.
