Week-Long Certified Fastener Specialist™ training to be offered again in 2010

The Fastener Training Institute® in partnership with the Industrial Fasteners Institute will offer a week-long intensive version of FTI’s Certified Fastener Specialist™ advanced fastener technical training program, July 19-23, 2010 in Cleveland, Ohio.

This partnership between the Fastener Training Institute™ and IFI is in response to requests by fastener distributors and manufacturers to offer FTI’s training programs outside of the Los Angeles area.

Fastener Training Institute-Cleveland 2010 will include everything that a student would experience in the regular seven-course CFS™ training, but all on consecutive days. Midwest fastener companies will save on travel expenses and days missed by sending attendees to Cleveland instead of Los Angeles for technical training.
