CFI To Hold Annual Convention in August

Kansas, City, June 18, 2010--CFI will hold its 17th anniversary celebration and convention in Kansas City, Missouri on August 19-21.

The program is heavy on education and training in carpet, tile, laminate, wood, resilient and business topics.  The associate seminars provide information about new products, tools and technical information.

On Thursday evening at 5:30, the WFCA-sponsored Leadership Conference kicks off the CFI Convention. 

Seminars are scheduled to enhance installation techniques, business and presentation skills.  The installation workshops feature hands-on participation in different flooring surfaces, best business practices, the commercial installation marketplace, finished concrete flooring, laminate workshop, woven workshop, the compatibility of wood with concrete, National Association of the Self Employed seminar, insurance and bonding information and the consequences associated with moisture and alkalinity.

According to Jim Walker, CEO, “Nowhere is the impact of the accomplishments of the CFI members as visible as it is at the Convention. It is rewarding to be involved in the achievements of the individual members and the enthusiasm they have for being at the top of their careers. It’s impossible to attend this event and not witness how flooring installation could be represented to the consumers if everyone shared this enthusiasm and attitude.”
