CEU Classes for Building Design Professionals Gaining Popularity

December 26, 2012/in Hand Scraped Flooring /by andrewblog

Whew…I am finally taking a bit of a break from traveling. I must say, one of the highlights of my job is meeting with extraordinary and talented building design professionals. Our CEU classes covering how to create award-winning designs with reclaimed and River-Recovered® woods always prompts captivating conversation. Our CEU classes have become so popular, we will be taping the first one of 2013 and offering an online option as well. We have had some people request an online option they can take at their convenience, so we are making accommodations for those who desire this. Of course, I am always excited to travel and present within companies or for organizations.

We will be taping the class in January, and working out the details for the online option, so stay tuned. In the meantime, feel free to browse the locations currently scheduled. If you are interested in signing up, please RSVP by calling the number listed for the location which you are interested:
