NTCA’s Tile & Stone Workshops and CTEF Workshops are a great opportunity to stay abreast of the latest techniques and systems for tile and stone installation. The programs offered this year include the revamped Failures: Could it be Me? presentation and the Tile Matters: Best Practices for the Pros presentation. The Failures presentation pairs information about changes to the TCNA Handbook, and standards and methods that support successful tile installation. AIA and ID- CEC credits will be available upon request where applicable. The Tile Matters workshop addresses OSHA silica dust regulations, standards review, showers/waterproofing, sealants and mortar coverage. Both free workshops offer an hour of networking and a catered meal, presen- tations and product/methods demos by NTCA Trainers and more real-hands-on experience for participants. This year, you'll also see the schedule for the new members-only Regional Training programs, a fantastic, hands-on opportunity to refine your skills on ei- ther standards-based installation of gauged porcelain tile and gauged porcelain panels/slabs, or standards-approved practices for substrate prep and large-format tile.
