Denver, Colorado. – November 17, 2009 – Textile Consultants and Aspire Educational Institute announced that registration for their February 21st Advanced Water Damage Restoration Workshop in San Juan, Puerto Rico is open.   The event is over 5 days and attendees can extend their stay before or after the workshop at discounted prices. 

              “We have been holding workshops for three years on the sea and now with our outstanding land excursion locations, we will expand our educational programs and concentrate on specialty areas,” said Barry Costa of Aspire Educational Institute. “Our audiences have been asking for specific information and forms to take back with them to apply into their businesses.  We have spent the last 5 months working on the program and developing new forms and information for this workshop,” said Larry Cooper of Textile Consultants.

  The workshop will allow you to spend time with other industry experts, business owners and managers, having time to network, relax, and build business relationships and friendships, all while gaining valuable insight and information to further build your restoration business practice.  Along with classroom time, enjoy networking and time to break away from business and rejuvenate, and don’t forget there will be plenty of fun and new places to explore.  You owe it to yourself, your family and your business development to take the time to learn the newest ideas and concepts from the leading industry team.
