Participant Selection Criteria

A maximum of 20 participants from the design, construction and maintenance sectors will be selected for each FLP training program.

Up to three individuals from a company are able to participate, however, at this time we are only accepting one individual from each sector per company. For example, a company would be able to send one individual from their design team, one from their construction team and one from their maintenance team.
