Training with Spandex

This was the whole point of the training session we recently had with , one of the world’s leading manufacturers of products for signs.

This was one of those times when all of the staff were involved; those who designed the signs, those who constructed and manufactured them, those who cut vinyls, and so on. We all participated and got our hands dirty, so to speak.

Training with Spandex

The gentleman on the right is the one training us; he gave us a challenge to use the bits and pieces we had in the workshop and sure enough, we managed to come up with something (with his guidance as to what special item we could construct).

Training with Spandex

The training was useful for all of us I think, we each learned something new about the products and what they were capable of, as well as learning new bits of information about existing hardware we already used. Familiarity with the names of products, and constructing them as we have always done is fine, but knowing how they were meant to be used from the horse’s mouth can sometimes give you a bit of knowledge that can prove more useful than doing what you’ve always done.
