Sherwin-Williams
Automotive Finishes has announced its third-quarter training courses for collision professionals
beginning July 2011. This curriculum will provide collision repair industry professionals
with three months of business-building and production-excellence
courses available through classroom, web and hands-on settings. Sessions will
be held at numerous Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes training centers
located in metropolitan areas across the U.S.
Classes consist of multiple courses designed to increase shop
productivity and include sessions focusing on painter certification, AWX
waterborne systems, color adjustment and blending, fleet refinishing, accurate
estimating and workshop efficiency.
“All
of our courses this year reflect the Sherwin-Williams philosophy of lean
operations,” said Rod Habel, Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes
manager of training operations. “We’re seeking to introduce concepts
that support
sustainable practices, increase productivity and minimize or even
eliminate
waste – all factors that are necessary to the success of a collision
center.”
The
upcoming curriculum has a strong emphasis on the company’s AWX waterborne coatings technology, while other classes
will focus on painting excellence with its ULTRA 7000, Dimensions and
Genesis systems.
