On July 30, 2021, coinciding with the mid-year meeting, Hengyuan Polymer launched its own employee school— “Hengyuan Enterprise Academy” 。

From researchers and marketing personnel to production line workers, every Hengyuan employee has their own exclusive account. They can easily learn and grow happily by logging in through a WeChat mini-program on their mobile phones.

The academy has eight modules. The “Advanced Map” customizes a career development path for each employee, and their learning plan at different stages can be seen in “My Learning”.

Through “I Want to Learn More” and “Xingzhi Academy”, employees can learn other professional skills and knowledge points of interest.

The “e-SOP” module not only contains electronic documents of production and equipment operating procedures but also video versions to facilitate employee learning and cultivate more excellent multi-skilled workers.

“Onboarding Channel” is a module prepared for new employees to help them quickly integrate into the Hengyuan family.

“Improvement Proposals” is an important module for lean activities, facilitating employees to promptly submit ideas and stimulating their creativity. At the mid-year meeting, three employees received “Excellent Improvement Proposal Awards” 。

The final “Exam Management” module showcases each employee's learning achievements and transcripts.

Dr. Shen Yuehua, founder of Hengyuan Polymer, stated: “Hengyuan has been exploring lean management in talent cultivation, cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and process optimization. The establishment of the Enterprise Academy is one of the achievements of lean management and sustainable development strategies. The development of an enterprise is inseparable from the development of its people. We want to create a platform for knowledge accumulation, build the cultural genes of a learning organization, and allow each employee to access knowledge points in a timely manner, progressing together with the company's development.”

In the tide of industrial development, employees are like screws, completing their work at their respective posts. However, many people do not understand the overall development path of the enterprise or the contribution of their seemingly small work to the transformation of China's manufacturing industry and the broader picture of technological development. Because of this, many people cannot see the value of their work, nor do they see a clear path for professional advancement, losing their curiosity and interest in learning. The establishment of the Enterprise Academy has opened a channel for knowledge accumulation for each employee.

On July 31, a one-day offline training session for middle and lower-level management was held, with fruitful results.

Participants actively discussed and diligently completed each assignment during the training.

Two-way humidity control and intelligent humidity management are emerging industries both domestically and internationally. In research and development and production, Hengyuan Polymer has been innovating and exploring, with each step representing new progress; there are no ready-made textbooks in the industry to learn from. Establishing its own “knowledge base” and learning platform is a natural trend for Hengyuan, and a necessary step.

In the niche market of two-way humidity control materials, some employees of Hengyuan Polymer are practical and skilled technicians, and their long-term accumulated knowledge system is extremely valuable. “Hengyuan Enterprise Academy” not only provides them with learning tools but also aims to provide a platform for knowledge output and talent display for dedicated individuals, skilled technicians, and experienced masters at every stage.
