TROY, MI — AkzoNobel recently announced the launch of its new Acoat Selected digital training platform containing business services content relevant to end-user customers. This training content was previously only available to Sikkens customers through face-to-face instruction by a services consultant at the customer location. The digital platform is now available to AkzoNobel's Lesonal customers as well as its Sikkens customers.

The digital training platform contains seven robust content categories, most relevant to collision repair shop owners/managers and production managers. The categories include Process Improvement, Human Resources, Marketing, Technical, Sales, Finance and more. In addition, the training fulfills I-Car continuing education credit requirements and is free of charge for AkzoNobel's Sikkens and Lesonal customers.

In a touching tribute, AkzoNobel named the digital platform's virtual presenter Todd in honor of its Services Consultant, Todd Edwards, who tragically passed away last year. Beloved by colleagues and customers alike, a bit of Todd lives on in AkzoNobel's new digital training platform as the guide and narrator for all Acoat Selected online learning content.

This new digital training platform is in addition to the technical training that has long been available to painters and technicians from AkzoNobel. To access AkzoNobel digital training programs, visit www.AkzoNobelTraining.com.
