AJ University

A class of our own.

We’re committed to investing in the education of future papermakers. That's why we founded AJ University. Offered since 2005 at our Charleston, South Carolina headquarters, AJ University is a unique series of classes and coursework designed to instruct papermakers of all experience levels on the nuances of clothing, equipment, machine analysis and diagnostics. In addition to traditional classroom instruction, our roundtables and seminars provide attendees with a forum for discussing the issues they face day-to-day and sharing best practices across our industry.

Attending an AstenJohnson-led forum gave me the opportunity to network with other papermakers, learn from their processes and troubleshoot the issues we face day-to-day. I came away from the experience with new ideas and a renewed enthusiasm for the work I do.

I loved the fact that the theory was first discussed, but then also shown how it applied to the machine and how it could be controlled. I left AJU with a lot of things to bring back to the mill and apply right away.

Fantastic week! It is uncommon, at other events like these, for each and every presenter to not only be knowledgeable, but also have the presentation skills to keep everyone engaged. That was certainly the case at AJU.
