NFPA 2013 Conference & Expo - an opportunity for sprinkler education and training

Plan an entire week of fire suppression training at NFPA Conference & Expo. Take a 2- or 3-day seminar, then mix and match 3 days of classes from 25 classes. Classes in the Fire Suppression track delve into the proper design, installation, inspection, testing, maintenance, and plan review for sprinkler systems. Plus, what a great opportunity to check out the expo with over 330 companies, several of which are industry leaders in fire suppression products and services!
