Carboline has launched the new CarboNext initiative aimed at supporting young corrosion professionals.
In order to further expand its efforts towards the corrosion industry, Carboline
has launched a new initiative: CarboNext. The aim of this programme is to support, educate, connect and engage with young engineers and corrosion professionals. The audience of the project is composed by under-40 y.o. engineers, specifiers, inspectors, project managers, operators, or people who are willing to learn more about coatings and corrosion.
Carboline actively develops outreaching and networking opportunities in order to provide resources for people interested in corrosion protection and protective coatings. Besides education and training, CarboNext programme will also integrate technical workshops and community support projects.
“Carboline recognizes the changeover happening in the industry with young professionals taking on more decision-making roles. We want to educate and provide resources for this next generation of leaders,” stated Carboline’s Vice-President of Marketing Melissa Molitor.
“I can attribute much of my overall growth in my career to those people who took the time to mentor me. I remain thankful for the organizations that provided great training resources to me as I progressed in my career. We hope that CarboNext can aid others in their career growth and overall knowledge progression as it relates to coatings and corrosion,” concluded Brian Cheshire, Carboline Market Manager and one of the organisers of CarboNext.
