Fastener Training Institute (FTI) plans its next Fastener Training Week in Cleveland, OH, April 8-12. The training will be held at Brighton-Best International.
“We are excited to welcome our next class of Fastener Training Week students,” shared Jo Morris, Marketing Director for Fastener Training Institute. “Knowledge builds confidence and leads to a safer industry. FTI is committed to providing continuous opportunities for all levels of fastener education,” she added.
Developed in 1998 with guidance from the International Fastener Institute, the Certified Fastener Specialist™ (CFS) advanced technical training program is the most noteworthy measurement of technical aptitude for fastener professionals.

FTI’s advanced technical training program is for fastener distributors, manufacturers, end-users as well as sales and quality assurance professionals.
