The new knowledge platform includes extensive interactive eLearnings on effect groups such as defoamers or matting agents, live events, expert lectures, lab videos, and much more. It is free to register for and use the platform.
Users can register for different content depending on their level of knowledge and area of interest. Users themselves determine the time and speed at which they want to complete the training courses. Upon successful completion of an eLearning course, users also receive certificates with which they can document the completion of the course. In this way, the business line supports its customers in training new employees, while at the same time enabling experts to acquire new detailed knowledge.
In addition to classic eLearning content, the offering on the platform also includes approaches for so-called “blended learning,” i.e. the combination of online and offline content, as well as background information on coating technologies. There is also extensive information material on every new Coating Additives product, so that users of the platform always have access to the latest information on the business line’s product portfolio.
“COATINO® Campus does not, of course, replace support from our coatings experts,” explains project manager Susanne Struck. “Rather, the platform enables our customers to educate themselves at any time and additionally seek personal contact with us.”
In addition to the new knowledge platform, the COATINO® formulation network already includes an AI-supported product recommendation, voice control and a formulation assistant. Additional services are under development. “Regardless of which phase of formulation development our customers are in, we always offer the right assistance: from additive selection to optimal formulation composition to application technology support,” says Struck.
The knowledge platform is aimed not only at companies in the paints and coatings industry, but also at students and trainees who want to further their education on their own initiative.
