Free Training! Polyvance University Courses Are Free Indefinitely!
As you may know, Polyvance ran a limited time promotion between October and December 2022, where we offered our online Polyvance University training courses for free. In just this short amount of time, we received over 500 enrollments and lots of positive feedback. We recognized that people were benefitting from the free courses, especially tech schools.
Because of the overwhelmingly positive response, we will be keeping the courses free indefinitely! We hope that keeping the courses free will allow even more people to learn about plastic repair. The courses available on the Polyvance University platform are especially beneficial for technicians, apprentices, estimators, adjusters, and tech school students that want to learn how to repair plastic.
There are currently two courses available on the Polyvance University platform – Basics of Plastic Repair and Nitrogen Plastic Welding 1. We received positive feedback on both courses. Thank you to everyone that provided feedback and comments.
The Basics of Plastic Repair course is designed to give the basic knowledge needed to start working with plastic including plastic identification, plastic preparation, six different repair methods, and plastic refinishing.
- “Great course! To the point on all issues! Very good with the 3.5 minute average per module for today’s students!”
- “Great course. The content was highly educational and detailed.”
The Nitrogen Plastic Welding 1 course focuses on the practical knowledge needed to perform fusion repairs on damaged thermoplastics with the nitrogen plastic welder. Covers proper alignment and fixturing, v-groove preparation, and the welding process itself.
- “The content is excellent. It clearly explains the plastic repair process with various scenarios. Some of the scenarios I thought were not possible to repair. This was an excellent course.”
- “The content was excellent and will allow technicians to perform quality lasting repairs.”
Both courses are available in English and Spanish. Each course takes only about an hour to complete and awards a certificate upon successful completion.
