TEAM AVANTI
AvantiGrout is ON. There's no better training regimen than hands-on, in the field training. Avanti hosts an Industrial and Geotechnical Grout Injection School- two and a half days of hands-on workshops and interactive classroom sessions centered around education. Avanti understands how to build Live Learning Events. First, you limit class size. Second, you break the class into smaller work teams. Third, you provide equal parts classroom and hands-on workshops to embed content for life. Lastly, you build content around life-long skills each participant needs to specialize and become an expert in urethane injections.
For two and a half days get hands-on experience with the following:
*Grout Chemistry
*Crack Injection
*Curtain Grouting
*Soil Stabilization
*Soil Fundamentals
AvantiGrout is ON THE GROW. This is NOT your average school. This school focuses on building life-ling skills including the knowledge you need to make decisions in the field, the technologies and techniques to properly convey product for maximum results, and common sense approach to problem solving with chemical and cement grouts. *Ten PDH credits certified by CIGMAT at the University of Houston will be available to all participants with a certificate given on the final day*
