Testimonials Still not convinced that you should consider attending or send- ing your team? Well, here is some feedback from others who have attended: Woody Sanders, Owner, D.W. Sanders Tile & Stone Contracting: “The regional event was a tre- mendous opportunity that we took full advantage of. The efforts and preparation of the NTCA, along with the workshop sponsors could not go without being noticed and applauded. With the popularity of GPTP growing and the recent com- pleted standards being published, this training focused on GPTP from start to finish. Furthermore, the event focused on proper tech- niques with hands-on training. This is why a few of my apprentice set- ters and I attended. Looking back, I should have brought my entire staff, but coming out of Coverings’ Tiny House [Installation Design Showcase] last week, we needed to get back to work.” Rod Owen, Owner, C.C. Owen Tile, stated: “We had the opportu- nity to send a diverse group of our men for the Gauged Porcelain Tile Panels training. They ranged from master journeymen to first-year stu- dents in our Apprentice Training Program here at C.C. Owen Tile Co. “The training gave the opportunity to discover new, exciting materials and methods of installation while emphasizing the absolute necessity for a strong core foundation of time proven methods,” Owen continued.
