On March 30-31, NERCA held its annual convention at Foxwoods Resort. The event continued its long success, providing educational seminars and the opportunity for over 100 exhibitors to interact with customers.
Particularly successful were the educational seminars, which all drew positive reactions from attendees. NERCA brought in local and national experts who provided valuable insights into today’s roofing industry. The seminars were:
- Training and retaining employees
- DOT Safe Trucking Demonstrations
- Technical Issues in the Industry
- Building Code Updates
- Legal Challenges facing the Industry
One of the most well attended sessions was Building Code Update seminar. Mark Graham, Associate Executive Director of Technical Services at the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA), provided an overview of the roofing-related changes to the International Code Council.
