Fastener Training Week – Houston, TX

December 7 @ 12:30 pm - December 12 @ 1:00 pm

The Fastener Training Institute® and the Industrial Fasteners Institute (IFI) continue their partnership to present Fastener Training Week – Houston, the week-long training program for fastener distributors and manufacturers on manufacturing processes, consensus standards, quality control and much more.

The late Joe Greenslade, IFI Director of Engineering Technology, has been instrumental in developing this program and providing content. As Joe says, “Almost everyone in the fastener industry from one month to thirty years of experience in any capacity related to sales, engineering, or quality can learn and benefit from this program.”

“There is no better investment a manager can make in their business than providing good training to their staff.”
