NTCA is crisscrossing the country, bringing 12 free workshops in five states for tile installers, contractors, sales and A&D professionals. 

Contributing to the two-day event agenda is a steering committee powered by interior designers and industry executives.

The hands-on education courses are offered at regional training centers and are led by highly skilled and trained CFI instructors. 

The Certified Installation Manager (CIM) Program sets the industry standard for those involved in the management of commercial flooring projects. 

The Floor Covering Education Foundation (FCEF) is pleased to share a recent partnership with Powernail that will provide technical schools with the tools needed to launch a Basic Flooring Installation program.

 Speakers will lead sessions on the latest trends in distribution leadership, management, corporate culture, economics, sales and marketing and labor retention and recruitment.

The American Floorcovering Alliance Inc. (AFA) has donated $135,000 to Georgia Northwestern Technical College (GNTC) to support the college’s flooring industry programs.

The convention content is designed to reflect the seismic shift that redefined retail over the last couple years, accelerated by 2020’s unprecedented global pandemic. 

Flooring installers, retailers and distributors from all over the country gathered at this year’s International Certified Installers (CFI) Convention to compete in the Southeast Regional Installation competition, participate in education sessions, demo new products and connect with colleagues.
