How Does METALCON Online Work?

METALCON Online Education (formerly known as METALCON Live!) is a platform delivering live AIA credit-earning webinars presented by key industry thought leaders. Scheduled monthly or bi-monthly, each webinar covers relevant and current topics on various aspects of the metal construction and design industry. Attending a live session offers a unique opportunity to interact with the presenter in “real-time.” Watch according to your schedule — either attend LIVE or watch from the extensive ON-DEMAND library (YouTube), available 24/7.

The library of on-demand webinars is organized into five playlists for quicker browsing:

Business Strategies: Webinars featuring industry experts who provide you with solid, sensible advice and tried-and-true techniques, tools, and strategies for your business’ growth and success.

Technical Know-How: These webinars highlight technical information, installation guidelines, specifications, “how-to’s”, “do’s and don’ts” and other technical intelligence.

Sustainability & Efficiency: Discover how metal plays an important role in the conversation about sustainability. Webinars expound on metal roofing installations, capitalize on the benefits of solar, and understand and monetize net zero construction.

Metal Construction Industry News: Don’t be blindsided by unforeseen developments. Watch these webinars to stay abreast of industry news, market trends, and product developments and stay ahead of the curve.

Case Studies in Design & Architecture: Watch as designers and installers present the projects they’re most proud of and share details about their choices for design elements, sustainable aspects, and the challenges they overcame.
