Education Resources
Masonry Technology, Inc. is eager to help with your continuing education needs. We have recently begun providing live and on-demand training for architects and builders. This new approach gives us much more flexibility in the ways we can offer AIA CES provider workshops and other MTI training. We can virtually meet with customers much more quickly and on their schedules. We also feel that this a much better use of natural resources.
Masonry Technology, Inc. is a Registered Provider with The American Institute of Architects Continuing Education Systems. Credit Earned on completion of these programs will be reported to CES Records for AIA members. Certificates of Completion for non-AIA members are available upon request.
