International Standards & Training Alliance (INSTALL) is holding an open house event in Arlington, Texas, to celebrate the organization’s first training facility in The Lone Star State.
The open house will take place at 10:30 a.m. on Aug. 31 at the North Texas Training Center, 1901 Susan Drive, in Arlington. Attendees will receive complimentary lunch, a tour of the training facility and an overview of INSTALL’s program.
The event will also feature representatives from Ardex, Armstrong Floor Products, Gerflor, HB Fuller, HPS Schönox, Halex, Mohawk Industries, nora, Shaw Industries Inc. and Tarkett/Johnsonite.
INSTALL’s decided to move into Texas because of the state’s booming housing market, said John McGrath, executive director of INSTALL, in a statement.
“Texas is the most vibrant market in the country and it’s booming with projects and available work force,” he said. “We want to get those workers trained and certified so that they can deliver quality commercial flooring installations to the Texas market.”
