Invest in Your Pallet Knowledge

As avid fans of learning, we are grateful for the opportunities we’ve had to expand our knowledge. Over the years, we’ve benefited by data, research, and information sharing from various thought leaders. And our professional development toolbox continues to grow thanks to involvement with many industry associations including the Western Pallet Association (WPA).

Recognized as the leading advocate for the pallet industry in the western region of North America, the WPA recently announced the launch of Pallet University, an online learning platform dedicated to providing education on pallets and the pallet industry.

Warehouse and logistics managers as well as anyone who is responsible for buying pallets will benefit from this resource in many ways including:

1. Employee Development – Refresh existing team members’ knowledge and quickly get new employees up to speed on the fundamentals of pallets.
2. Improved Buying Strategies – Understand pallet components, categories, and types enabling you to make informed decisions on your pallet purchase.
3. Subject Matter Expertise – By deepening your knowledge of wood pallets, you position yourself as a resource for pallet procurement and a subject matter leader in your organization.
4. Environmental Stewardship – Learn essential repair techniques and recycling practices that promote sustainability and environmental responsibility.

The current online learning package covers 11 topics over 31 lessons with video, quizzes, and reference documents. For more information and to register, visit Pallet University.  You can also follow them on LinkedIn for articles, fun facts, and updates on the program.

Happy learning from all of us at Rose Pallet.  And, of course, when it’s time to buy, contact the pros and your partners for the long haul.
