NTCA is scouring the country in the new year, bringing 86 Regional Training Programs and 206 Workshops to contractors, installers and industry professionals. In January, NTCA presents five workshop and two regional programs in six states.
Workshops: Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas and Missouri
NTCA Trainers are visiting four states in January with five free, standards-based workshops that put attendees in touch with peers and industry experts as you learn new skills and information. Enjoy a catered meal from local eateries, and a chance to win valuable prizes. The three-hour afternoon or evening events are open to tile installers and contractors, as well as sales personnel and the A&D community – anyone who wants to learn more about standards-based installation practices.
Each NTCA Workshop is presented by NTCA Technical Trainers who have been installing tile themselves for many years or who still maintain their tile installation business. Workshops – made possible through the support of generous sponsors who believe in elevating the industry through education -- feature one of the following topics:
- Ins and Outs of Layout for Contractors
- Tile Matters – Best Practices for the Pros
