and effective training programs in the industry. This detailed training is geared toward developing a standard, proven, and clear-cut method for all to follow, rather than the arbitrary “day shift way,” “night shift way,” “this guy’s way,” or “that guy’s way.” All presentation materials and procedures demonstrate tested practices that have been documented as successful over the years and are currently used throughout the industry.  The seminar is not a theory-only event; rather, it features tangible, reliable information that can be utilized immediately. Sladky states that this is one of the major reasons these “regional” and “in-house on-site” programs are so popular and rank high in demand and attendance. Roll-Kraft conducts regional training seminars and events periodically throughout the year, and also offers tube and pipe training and roll forming training programs at customer’s locations.  Conducting a training program on-site allows the instructors to focus on the mills as they currently operate, with tooling and staff, and allows interaction with their everyday issues and experiences.  According to Sladky, demand for this service during 2017, along with on-site mill line training, has outpaced all other years in which these services have been offered. .
