Rempac Foam, an industry leader in converted flexible foam products, has joined forces with Robeson Community College’s Customized Training Division. The company recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Robeson Community College for a three-year Customized Training Project.
“On behalf of Robeson Community College, we would like to congratulate Rempac Foam of Lumberton, NC on becoming a customized training program client,” stated Angela Locklear, a coordinator for customized training solutions at RCC, in a press release. ”We look forward to working with Rempac Foam and assisting them in the healthy growth of their company.”
Customized Training is offered exclusively through the North Carolina Community College System. It provides education, training and support services for new, expanding and existing business and industry in North Carolina.
Businesses meet with training experts and coordinators through the program who work in partnership with employers to tailor training to meet specific needs. The goal of customized training is to spur job growth, technology investment and productivity enhancement.

Robeson Community College administers the support funds for the project.”
The training offered through Customized Training is available at no cost, pending that the company meets all the eligibility requirements.
