Highlights of our 2024 Fall Technical School – Another Blockbuster
Our highest attendance ever, four sold out courses and a school that exceeded all expectations from start to finish. We offered a full curriculum of 7 courses including DHC Exam Prep/Exam, DHT Exam, Advanced Electrified Architectural Hardware and Introduction to Spec Writing. DHI Canada remains committed to educating the next generation of Canadian door and hardware experts. We couldn’t do it without the support of our employers, our students and our instructors. Thanks to all for your continued support.
Here are just a few testimonials from our students which reinforces the importance of our in-person schools:
- DHI courses are a great initiative to build a strong foundation of the hardware industry. With such a great culture, I can visualize the new generation becoming industry leaders.
- DHI Canada’s schools are the best place to learn industry practices & knowledge. I love learning from the industry experts. Great Experience.
- This training provides expert technical knowledge in this life saving industry.
- Kristi and Tim did a fantastic job at staying on schedule with the DHC exam prep course whilst providing real life examples, keeping things light and interesting.
- I’m not perfect, but I’m always getting better at my career with the help of DHI Canada and their instructors.
- My DHI Canada in-person learning experience has always been fun and useful. It’s great to get together with industry experts and colleagues to better learn about the industry and grow together.
