The Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) has unveiled its Industrial Coating Application (ICA) Training Program. This program is a flexible and comprehensive solution for training industrial sprayers and abrasive blasters, designed to attract and train those new to the workforce or provide needed training to experienced individuals seeking to gain industry-recognised credentials.

The ICA Training Program is designed to be adaptable, ensuring a training experience that suits participants' needs. Through engaging formats, including hands-on workshops and instructional videos, attendees gain practical skills and knowledge in a dynamic learning environment.

“Unlike our traditional Education programs, this is a customisable learning experience that allows the contractor or training provider to customise the learning experience while still earning AMPP recognition,” said Alicia Yust, director of Learning and Development. 

This subscription-based service provides around-the-clock access to essential resources, including student workbooks, hands-on experiences, and presentation materials. The industrial blaster module focuses on abrasive blasting fundamentals, expediting the learning process for those in training. In contrast, the industrial sprayer module includes a concentrated, hands-on approach to sprayer training, covering areas such as coating fundamentals, receiving and storage, and application techniques.
