Atlanta Flooring Design Centers hosted the first-ever two-day Flooring Contractors Association (FCICA) Certified Installation Manager (CIM) certification at its Suwanee, Georgia facility. Nineteen CIM Candidates went through the program and received their CIM certifications.
In the past, the program has spanned three days, but FCICA was able to update the schedule to complete the program in two days.
"The CIM Program is the only certification program for Flooring Project/ Installation Managers," said Catherine Church, executive director, FCICA. "It provides the education and resources needed to help your company save time and money during installations and provides unprecedented education from industry experts. We are proud that over 300 CIMs have completed the program since it’s inception in 2015. Including these 19 CIMs, Atlanta Flooring Design Centers has 37 active CIMs, the most out of any other company with CIMs."
