COVID-19 Update: Meyer Sound Launches Comprehensive Daily Online Training ProgramEducation has been a pillar program of Meyer Sound for decades. Today's current circumstances called for a shift from in-person seminars to virtual classrooms. Due to overwhelming response to an initial daily offering of online training content the past few weeks, the Meyer Sound education team is now launching an ongoing comprehensive webinar program starting today, Tuesday, April 14. The content blocks will offer a natural progression of subject matter, providing attendees both practical knowledge for honing skills as well case studies for reference. The instructors will review specialty tools that cover a diverse set of solutions across all industry verticals. The education team also welcomes attendees to choose from an à la carte menu to create every other Friday "On Demand" programming via a weekly poll through the Meyer Sound Users Community Facebook group. Later in the spring, special guests, including Meyer Sound CEO John Meyer, will be invited to join and lead some of the discussions. "Education has always been a pillar of the holistic Meyer Sound core brand philosophy of sharing knowledge. Recent events have put the spotlight on the importance of offering our public training, not just with in-person seminars, but via online platforms," says John McMahon, Meyer Sound senior vice president of sales and marketing. "Our global team was quick to respond to the need by curating an informative and engaging program." The webinars are organized by weekly content chapters kicking off with the Meyer Sound Precision Toolset and introduction to MAPP XT, introduction to Compass control software and ULTRA Series, intermediate Compass and IntelligentDC technology, and advanced Compass and digital steerable CAL column loudspeakers round out the first month. The team will continue the established format of Mondays, Wednesday, and Fridays in English led by Merlijn van Veen, Meyer Sound senior technical support and education specialist. Tuesday and Thursday session will be in Spanish with the first session featuring Oscar Barrientos, Meyer Sound technical services manager, Latin America.
