Not a member of WFCA? Joining the association NOW is a good idea even if the names of the installers are not available.

After February 3rd (MD) or February 17 (KS), the WFCA funding no longer exists and the cost becomes $495.00 per person. Space is limited, so don’t wait until the last minute.

WFCA has provided a fantastic opportunity and CFI doesn’t want anyone to miss installation training.
