Focusing on Concrete Slabs

Next week you have an opportunity to learn and become proficient in probably the most-talked about topic in concrete construction – slabs. Spurred by this interest, staff at the ACI Resource Center-Southern California have developed a robust sure to interest contractors and design professionals. Several of World of Concrete’s most popular seminar speakers are slated to be instructors for the classes.

It’s the first time the ACI certification team has scheduled a week-long educational and testing session. “ACI Slabs Week provides a convenient and unique opportunity for engineers, designers, contractors, and finishers to grow their knowledge and expertise in concrete slab design and finishing through a consolidated regional event,” stated Michael Morrison, Manager of Certification Program Development at the American Concrete Institute.

 “In addition to educational content and exam preparation, we’re pleased to offer, for the first time ever, an expanded opportunity for attendees to earn an ACI Specialty Commercial/Industrial Concrete Flatwork Finisher and Technician certification during ACI Slabs Week at the ACI Resource Center – Southern California.” Description of this new certifications was provided by Steve Lloyd in his interview  Certifying Practical Concrete Finishing Skills | woc360
