After an intense 2021 on the training side, Catas Academy has recently defined the 2022 calendar which presents, alongside institutional appointments, "ad hoc" events also linked to the territorial contexts in which Catas operates with greater incisiveness: Triveneto and Brianza, where the two offices of the institute are operative, and Emilia Romagna/Marche, where the first Catas Point was opened in 2021.
From the calendar of appointments emerges, first of all, the collaboration between Catas and realities such as Federchimica and Acimall, the confindustrial associations that represent companies operating in the chemical industry and in the construction of machinery for the processing of wood and its derivatives. The 2022 Catas webinar will seek to deepen some of the most topical technical issues, as well as inform on the latest regulatory news.
Once again this year, the scheduled webinar will be made available on the Catas You Tube channel for anyone interested, (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNsYMkkXcAZn-RhM5XJIUzA, while subscribers to the lab's services will be able to access them directly from the "myCatas" area dedicated to them (https://my.catas.com/login).
"Being able to continue Catas Academy's intense training activities online allows us to overcome the limitations imposed by the health emergency," commented Franco Bulian, director of Catas. "Although our hope is to soon be able to meet again in person, we must recognize the great potential of these tools that allow us to keep alive the relationship and the comparison on the many terrains on which the actuality and the near future of the world of wood and furniture is played out."
