Major provides Support through free virtual Training Series
Major, a leading global manufacturer of high-performance wire screening media, offers aggregate and mining producers access to the company’s free virtual training series to help operations optimize efficiency and team learning amid the conditions caused by Covid-19. The on-demand webinars provide practical tips involving screen media, screen boxes and the screening process.
Additionally, operations can request private virtual training sessions to focus on topics focused on specific challenges or applications. Two already-released videos include “How to Boost Screen Performance” and “How to Maintain Your Screen.” The series has the ultimate goal of improving operations’ safety, profits and overall efficiency.
“It’s more important than ever that we work together to overcome the challenges brought on by the pandemic,” said Bernard Betts, Major president. “We’re eager to help our customers and any producers interested in learning from our team to improve hands-on skills for better efficiency, maintenance and performance.”
Major hosts the on-demand webinars on an online portal where viewers can access a full list of the publicly available videos. The manufacturer will choose new topics based on questions or subjects they hear regularly brought up by customers. Each training webinar will educate end-users on the best practices and new technologies to optimize their efficiency, fine-tune their screening and minimize unscheduled downtime.
In addition to Major producing the public training webinars, companies can request private, virtual trainings. These sessions can focus in on topics specific to individual operations.
