The Adhesive and Sealant Council (ASC) recently announced it has created a Training Academy Certification Task Force consisting of technical, marketing and human resource leaders from member companies. The task force is intended to guide the development of the ASC’s Certificate Program, including determining both technical and business oriented curricula, as well as training recognition levels.

Croson, president. “We want ASC to be a primary resource for the industry to rely on for training their team on the fundamentals of adhesives and sealants, with programs touching the entire spectrum of learning needed within the formulating community.”
The following ASC member leaders have volunteered to serve on the task force:
- Board Member Gerhard Haas, vice president, Jowat Corp.
