PAULSON SCHOOL OF MOLDING SELLING OUT
Hugely successful in Shreveport. Sold out in Minneapolis. Must add new classes Chester, CT (April 14, 2007) …Paulson Training Programs held a sold out School of Molding in March at Louisiana Technical College in Shreveport, Louisiana, in May and June at Hennepin in Minneapolis, MN. Not only was the class in LA at an outstanding facility hugely successful, but the intense production-floor training program was attended by Paulson’s president, Scott Paulson. “The School of Molding is booming. It’s grown exponentially, tripling in size since the school’s launch in 2004,” crowed Paulson adding, “I was thrilled to see not only the huge attendance, but the quality of the attendees. Our state-of-the-art instruction is the best way to teach molding skills, and results in graduates who will make a tremendous difference when they return to their own plant floors.“ Assistant Campus Dean of Louisiana Technical College–Shreveport, Valarie White, Ph.D. stated, "Our collaboration with Paulson is a win-win partnership that is in keeping with our mission of providing skilled employees for business and industry that contributes to the overall economic development and workforce needs of the region. This partnership is an opportunity to be responsive to the dynamics of technological change in the plastics industry as well as the global marketplace."
Rebecca Scherff, Polymer Lab Manager at MEPol, said that “Umberto is a great instructor. His personality and humor make the course enjoyable even when the material is difficult. His level of skill, education and knowledge of the subject matter is amazing.” Attendee Richard Graham of Kohler Plastics put in concisely: “Any injection molding plant needs this.” The School’s ProMolder 2 class to be held in May at Hennepin Technical College in Minneapolis, Minnesota sold out almost immediately, so Paulson added another class for June which also sold out. The second, additional ProMolder 2 class, new to Paulson’s schedule for 2007, will also be held at Hennepin Tech. It was needed to accommodate the demand from the many graduates who have received ProMolder 1 certification. ”As previously mentioned, the program has grown 300 percent and we have had to add classes to accommodate the growing demand. Companies across North America are reaping the benefits of this intensive training,” says Paulson. Paulson is now accepting registrants for courses at various locations throughout North America. Register online or by phone toll-free at (800) 826-1901. Class sizes are limited to just 8 to 10 to ensure a quality experience for attendees. Each attendee receives over 20 hours of hands-on machine time learning and practicing proper molding techniques. |

Lead instructor for the program is Umberto Catignani, a recognized expert in the plastics industry and principal of Atlanta-based Orbital Plastics Consulting, Inc., the Paulson School of Molding partner. “As a partner in the Paulson School of Molding, we were especially pleased to continue to see our classes sell out. In teaching the class at Shreveport, I was extremely impressed with the energy level and enthusiasm of the attendees, said Catignani.
