Mobile Solutions president and founder Bryan Schmitt, along with Juan “JT” Torres of Automotive Entertainment HB in Huntington Beach, California, will take virtual attendees through many time-saving and innovative techniques for designing and fabricating automotive interiors. They will also answer questions during the session and immediately afterward. The training will take place on Thur., Nov. 5, from 12-12:30 p.m. PT.
“We were very pleased that SEMA reached out to request that we do this session virtually,” said Schmitt. “We were originally scheduled to do an in-person session at this year’s SEMA Show, but with the cancelation of that event, it was great that the SEMA Education folks came up with an alternative to offer this virtually for SEMA360.”
“With all the webinars going on, people may have become fatigued at the traditional PowerPoint style presentations. Our training session is hands-on and we’re building right in front of the camera so it’s the real deal,” added JT Torres.
