April 26, 2020 — Toronto, Ontario — Liquid and powder coatings supplier Axalta will expand its live online courses for its refinish customers around the globe. THe move comes as many of its partner businesses follow shelter-in-place orders during the coronavirus pandemic.
The move comes after Axalta noted a 38 percent rise in usage of its online training materials in March.
“With many customers eager to continue learning while sheltering in place, we have modified the format of our live virtual training and expanded our course offerings to accommodate as many customers as possible,” said Troy Weaver, vice president of global refinish.
Each virtual class provides live, interactive instruction from Axalta’s expert training team via webcast.
“Live virtual training courses are streamed directly to customers and designed to offer technicians insight into new techniques that they can use every day at their collision centers or bodyshops,” said Weaver.
Axalta has several courses available to clients, including ones titled: surface prep/undercoats, basecoat and blending, clear coat application, and plastic refinishing. Additional courses are being added to meet the growing customer demand.
