This year, FTI‘s Fastener Training Week will take place December 7 to 10 in Cleveland, Ohio. FTI, or the Fastener Training Institute, is a non-profit organization dedicated to high-quality training opportunities in the fastener industry.
The Training Week features learning labs, interactive exercises, and quizzes to reinforce learning taught by industry experts. The content includes manufacturing processes, consensus standards, and quality-control practices.
Additionally, it will include a day of plant tours of manufacturing, secondary processes, and testing facilities. The virtual plant tours will be taking place on the third day of training.
Instead of seven separate one-day classes, this year the Fastener Training Week will offer four intensive days of education and plant tours as part of the acclaimed FTI Certified Fastener Specialist (CFS) advanced technical training program.
After completing this invaluable industry training in a small-group environment and passing a final exam, attendees are eligible for the Certified Fastener Specialist (CFS) designation.
