Essentials of Paint and Painting Technology
Testimonials
"This course would be very useful in helping to improve anyone’s coatings education" I’ve been in the coatings industry for 22 years, with the last 10 years on the commercial / architectural segment of the business. The MPI Level 1 course was very informative and a very good refresher to help bring back some of the basics that I learned early in my paint career. The online learning was informative, easy to follow and allowed me to work at my own pace. This course would be very useful in helping to improve anyone’s coatings education, while challenging them to learn material they aren’t regularly trained in. "It was definitely beneficial" It was a real good refresher. I’ve been at this for 34 years and it brought back a lot of things I’d forgotten. It was definitely beneficial. MPI is very prevalent in our marketplace and the name is well recognized so it will be helpful for me to tell my customers I’m now an MPI Certified Architectural Coating Technologist and I look forward to getting my MPI Coating Specialist certification as well. "It is great learning tool for either a commercial paint sales person or contractors/estimators working in the field" I’ve been in the paint industry for 26 years. I thought the course covered a wide range of material and I believe it is great learning tool for either a commercial paint sales person or contractors/estimators working in the field. "This training has added to my arsenal of resources needed to succeed at my job" I’m the Store Manager for the Mequon Branch and I call on all types of customers. I’ve been in the paint industry for 6 years and had no prior paint knowledge. I thought the course was very useful and have already gone back to it a couple times as a resource. This training has added to my arsenal of resources needed to succeed at my job. I will continue to go back to my notes for assistance. "I certainly would recommend MPI Training to anyone in the paint industry" I have been working in the paint industry for over thirty years. As an architect and designer rep for the past seven years, I am always helping architects and designers choose the right products for their projects. After completing MPI Level 1 and Level 2 training, I am more confident in my problem-solving and paint specification skills. I certainly would recommend MPI Training to anyone in the paint industry; the training provides information on substrates, paint applications, and specifications, and of course you will gain your clients' creditability when they see your MPI Certifications on your business cards. "MPI’s Level 1 course is an excellent training tool" MPI’s Level 1 course is an excellent training tool for new in-store sales personnel, or anyone new to the coatings industry. It’s also great information for intermediate-level staff who’ve been in the commercial/architectural coatings segment 3-4 years and know their product line really well: they’ll find this course to be a great complement to their product knowledge. "I really liked the course and found it very useful" I write specs every day and have worked with clients in the field for 5 years. I really liked the course and found it very useful, and I’m glad to have this certification as part of my professional credentials. Now, if clients ask, I’m better equipped to answer their questions and offer advice about things they may need to be aware of or that could be important to their projects. Our customers are very busy and don’t have time to gather all the paint information they need, so if I can be their resource, it’s a win for all of us. "MPI’s Level 1 “Essentials” training was a good refresher" I’ve been an architectural sales rep for the last 12 years, and spent my whole life working in paint. MPI’s Level 1 “Essentials” training was a good refresher. It’s a great course to keep you on top of your game, and I’d recommend it to everyone in the architectural paint community. "I found the MPI Level 1 training course to be a great program that will help me better serve our customers" I've been with Hallman Lindsay Paints for 7 years, and selling paint for about 38 years. I find I'm always learning as the industry changes and I get involved with new and different projects. I found the MPI Level 1 training course to be a great program that will help me better serve our customers. "The course was very useful" I’ve been in commercial painting work for 7 years. This course was an easy refresher for me on topics like application and safety that I work with regularly, but I was less familiar with the material on other topics such as paint chemistry, color, and manufacture, so what I learned will help me better communicate with the paint suppliers I deal with. Overall, the course was very useful, and would be especially valuable for someone who's a new hire: it gives a nice basic foundation in key areas. "MPI provided a large quantity of comprehensive information" MPI provided a large quantity of comprehensive information and a rigorous examination of my testing skills and foundation of knowledge in the coatings industry. Having already gone through the majority of apprenticeship, most of the topics were already familiar to me – and some of the technical aspects such as Specs and Standards you could have an entire course on alone. I scored a 90.2% on the course so I will say it was a good learning experience. |
