The Floor Covering Leadership Council (FCLC) took on a very big job when they convened their Installation Summits over the past few years to tackle the issue of bringing more qualified installers into the workforce.
The third part of the five-part series commissioned by the FCLC describes motivations and hurdles when considering flooring installation as a career path.
FCI sat down with Andy Smith, Mid-Atlantic Region sales manager for Ardex, and Bill Mabeus, executive vice president of Fishman, to gain their perspectives on training and how the two companies collaborate to raise the skill levels of both new and experienced flooring installers.
In this digital exclusive, get a sneak peek of a Q&A with Jon Namba, editorial director of FCI, as he shares his perspective on the skilled installation labor deficit and how to take matters into your own hands.
Keith Olson, a flooring contractor who operates Tandem Flooring in Algonquin, Ill., recently wrote in to offer his two cents about how to address the installation crisis.
Installers, manufacturers and distributors were on-hand for the 2017 Installation Summit and the 24th annual International Certified Floorcovering Installers (CFI) convention.
