The Karl Mayer Academy goes online, in order to provide its customers with the necessary know-how, even in times of corona-caused travel restrictions. For the short-term start into the World Wide Web, the company’s own qualification centre offers webinars lasting one hour and intended for not more than six to eight participants, as it relies on dialogue.
The new webinar series was successfully started by Roland Bämpfer by mid-May 2020. Via video, the Indian customers received from this course instructor a detailed description of the possibilities of producing fabrics which are suitable for making every day face masks. For many companies, the production of urgently needed sanitary articles represents an exception from the nationwide corona shutdown, the company said in a media statement.The Karl Mayer Academy goes online, in order to provide its customers with the necessary know-how, even in times of corona-caused travel restrictions.

The course instructor hopes to get fresh impetus for webinar topics thanks to the close cooperation of all parties involved. In addition to basic knowledge of warp knitting, divided into small units, the clients should acquire special know-how that is meant to further support them in their market situation. Especially now, many warp knitting mills have enough time for the qualification of their employees.
“With the participants, I discuss different lapping techniques and suitable yarns for the commonly used tricot machines in India. In this way, everyone can produce those articles that are most suitable for his business,” Bämpfer said.
“We don’t want any frontal teaching but interaction. In this way, we can better answer individual questions and support the development of new ideas,” Robert Kuna who develops Karl Mayer’s e-training concept said.
In addition to the webinars with flexible content, from next year on, the company will also offer online training courses, to support the previous academy courses with their permanent elements. The new offerings should contribute to increased efficiency in know-how transfer.
