By Johns Manville.
Johns Manville’s Better Understanding of Roofing Systems Institute (BURSI) has been offering customizable education programs designed to help train professionals since 1972. Now, the program is back in-person for the first time since the pandemic, offering a plethora of opportunities for you and your teams to enhance your understanding of roofing systems.
It was the JMTC facility in Littleton, Colorado, where the first in-person training since before the pandemic took place. The class also marked the 50th year of in-person and virtual training.
"Hosting BURSI at JMTC provided a chance to offer classroom sessions and lab tours of our membrane and insulation testing, along with demos on installation practices," said Melissa Walker, Roofing Systems Group Owner Services Marketing Manager.
The recent training attracted 20 design professionals. Melissa said a construction project manager who attended the training sent this email: "Thanks again for a great training and for being such accommodating hosts! We had a blast and learned a LOT!"
"When putting it out on social media, we received many comments from those who attended in the past including, 'Many years ago, I attended. One of the first really good courses on roofing' and 'I attended the BURSI sessions in March 1980, thanks to my JM rep. BURSI is a great program!' " Melissa said.
The in-person BURSI course hosted at JMTC is offered in the spring and fall, but you can contact your specifier services representative to book a lunch-and-learn for your design firm.
The BURSI program has evolved into two courses.
Level One classes provide an overview of various roofing components, system selection, live demos and a tour of our lab building.
Level Two classes include an overview of various codes, modification to a system, testing processes and resiliency and design-trend considerations, along with a tour of our lab building.
Classes are limited to 25 people so reserve your spot early.
Design professionals interested in either the Level One or Level Two program, make sure to reserve your seat today!
