PPG MVP Business Solutions has released its schedule of training classes for the first quarter of 2018.

The classes are offered at various locations across the U.S. and Canada and present innovative and effective business solutions for owners and managers of collision centres using PPG products.

The classes are designed to help shops improve their bottom line through the use of exclusive MVP performance-accelerating processes.

MVP classes are a part of PPG’s overall commitment to the industry and a key component of the strong relationship PPG builds with its customers. MVP provides participants with opportunities to examine their current business processes and practices and, through these classes, work with experts to determine the steps needed to adjust or revamp their approach toward a more successful business model.

A partial list of MVP classes scheduled for January through March 2018 includes Advanced Estimating, Business of Parts Management, Business in the 21st Century, Continuing Education Instructor Development Course and Elevating the Customer Experience. A complete up-to-date schedule of class dates and locations is available at ppgmvp.com. All MVP classes can be arranged for specific regions and shops to address particular issues.

“At PPG, we are in the collision industry for the long haul and realize that our success is dependent on our customers’ success,” said Jim Berkey, PPG Director, Business Solutions, Automotive Refinish. “When our customers are competitive and prosperous, we are as well. So it’s important to us to offer the most comprehensive training in the refinish industry—training that keeps our customers in front.”
