Continuing Education

INSTALL is a frequent continuing education provider for the International Facility Management Association in eastern PA, Delaware, and the eastern shore of Maryland. We also provide presentations to industry-specific groups such as the Healthcare Facility Managers Association of the Delaware Valley and the local chapter of the Council on Educational Facility Planners International, among others.

We hear from facility managers regularly about their need to understand flooring industry topics such as causes of moisture and floor failure, adhesives, material selection and the installation process.

All content is developed by veteran flooring instructors, with an average of 20 years experience. All content is reviewed and approved by a 10-member Labor-Management Committee for the Floor Covering Industry, which possesses a cumulative 475 years of experience in the flooring industry. Content is derived from curriculum that is created based on the advice and counsel of technical and educational representatives from INSTALL industry partners: more than 100 of the top mills and manufacturers in the floor covering industry.
