Training Highlights

Last week was a very special week for us, because it’s when we held our annual OPCMIA International Training Fund (ITF) Instructor Training Program.

On July 12-16, 2021, the ITF in conjunction with Washtenaw Community College (WCC) conducted a Virtual Instructor Training Program.

One course just wasn’t enough! The ITF had so many registrants for the first Virtual Concrete Polishing Train-the-Trainer/ASCC Tradesman Certification training that we had to schedule a second one.

Another very popular training event, the Intumescent Fireproofing Train-the-Trainer attracted so many registrants that the ITF held one in April and another in June, attracting 34 participants in total.

The ITF in conjunction with Carboline and Graco conducted a hugely successful Intumescent Fireproofing Train-the-Trainer October 1-3, 2019 in Merrillville, IN.

15 instructors from across the country journeyed to Arcadia, California to gain invaluable Hands-on training with Trimble’s Robotic Total Station.

What a successful week the 2019 Safety Week was! Instructors from all over the country attended the training and walked away with CPR/First Aid, AWP, Forklift, and Suspended Scaffold training.

Over 90 instructors are attending the 2019 2nd Annual Instructor Training Program at Washtenaw Community College.

Having completed the OSHA 510 course on March 29, 2019, these incredible instructors are one step closer to becoming authorized OSHA 10 & 30 instructors.
