Metal Roofing Alliance (MRA)<\/a> is offering more opportunities to save and learn during MetalCon 2019, held in Pittsburgh, Penn., Oct. 16-18.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the largest event dedicated to the metal design and construction trade in North America, MRA members and non-members can now register for the event at metalcon.com<\/a> for a discounted price using promo code MRA2019. It represents a $40 savings off regular MetalCon registration prices\u00a0(manufacturers, suppliers & distributors are excluded).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MRA also is hosting two expert seminars during MetalCon, exploring topics designed to help attendees capitalize on the metal roofing business, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Young Installers – The New Labor Force<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday, Oct. 16, from 4\u20134:30 p.m. (room: PPG theater)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It may be one of the biggest issues impacting the industry today; how to attract, recruit and retain a young workforce. This MRA session will explore tips, tools and techniques for how to create an engaging workplace that will appeal to an up-and-coming labor force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quality Metal Roofing – Why it Matters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2019, from 5\u20135:30 p.m. (room: Learning Center #1947)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sub-par materials that do not perform to consumer expectations give the metal roofing business a bad rap. Through testing, research and experience, the industry has developed an agreed-upon set of product specifications to ensure residential metal roofs meet or exceed expectations for durability, aesthetics, longevity and overall performance. Learn how quality metal roofing helps build customer satisfaction, reduces call-backs and increases referrals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-registration for MetalCon and MRA seminars are available by visiting the MetalCon website. For more information about the Metal Roofing Alliance, including how to become a member, visit online.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
