BETHESDA, MD – The Adhesive and Sealant Council (ASC) is requesting proposals for developing the ASC Training Academy, a web-based training effort designed to educate new employees at member companies on the fundamentals of adhesives and sealants, and to train end users on the benefits of adhesives and sealants. 

The ASC Training Academy will cover a full array of subject matter including Adhesives 101, Sealants 101, Additives 101 and Rheology 101. For end users, including design engineers and project engineers, the subject matter will focus on how adhesives and sealants can benefit specific market segments. 

The ASC believes consultants, professors and training professionals with a background in adhesives and sealants are ideal candidates to respond to specific academy modules outlined by ASC’s Technical Committee. Because of the complexity and range of uses for adhesives and sealants, the association expects many different organizations and individuals to serve as content providers for the academy.

 The association has set a dealine for Request for Proposal responses of March 30, 2012. For more information about submitting a proposal, click here.
