Companies are increasing their efforts to integrate online training into their sales and marketing efforts. How? Some companies simply bring product training online, thus boosting reps’ product knowledge, which greatly impacts sales.

BlueVolt has partnered with wholesaler Matco-Norca to launch the Matco-Norca University online training program. As the largest independent sourcing company for valves, faucets and plumbing specialties for the plumbing, heating and industrial markets, Matco-Norca’s online University is designed for company employees and representatives.

In the not-so-distant past, training in the electrical and other construction trade industries meant an automatic trip to the nearest training facility to take a course on a new product or updated safety protocol. But the industry has caught on to a new approach to training – one that takes place solely online.
