Mass Construction Supervisor CEU training will be held in Mansfield, Ma on 2/28/2013 and 3/7/2013. The sponsor of this training is National Lumber.

Business and Marketing Courses For Construction Business Owners: tools for immediate use in your business.

This CEU education training is unlike any other being offered in the state. We will teach three business topics on the first day where you will be given tools to help you improve your business results this year! 

I will be joined by Shawn McCadden who will teach three construction business courses on the first day of the training. Shawn McCadden writes articles for Remodeling Magazine, teaches courses at the JLC and Remodeling Show and speaks for major suppliers all over the country. The second day will cover the core 5 required topics and one elective hour. The training can be attended for both days or one depending on the credits you need to renew your CSL.

Mass Construction Supervisor License holders need to obtain continuing education credits in order to renew their builder licenses. (Unrestriced 12 CEU's, Restricted 10 CEU's and Specialty 6 CEU's.)

Mass Specialty License Holders (6 CEU's): Roofing, Windows and Siding, Masonry, Insulation, Demolition and Burning Fuel.

For this group we have organized the training so that you only need to sign up for one day. Many CEU trainings require signing up for the full 2 day seminar. We have set up our program so that those with Specialty Licenses only have to register for one day. The second day of the training 3/7/2013 is set up for this purpose. However, Specialty License holders may benefit from the business courses we are conducting on the first day.

Your Industry Experienced Trainers: Real education (not just CEU's) from trainers who have over 50 years residential construction experience combined that you can apply to your business.
