Organization Section 1 Content Section 1 Content Left Section 1 Content Right The International Finishing Trades Institute (iFTI) is a collaborative educational endeavor of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades (IUPAT) and its industry partners. The core purpose of iFTI is to develop and expand a qualified and competitive work force for the finishing trades industries. The iFTI supports joint apprenticeship training programs where those who wish to enter our trades learn their craft. We not only provide the necessary skills to do the job right the first time, but also the training to do it safely.Painter-decorators (also known as Painter-Commercial, Painter Construction) apply decorative and protective finishes in residential, commercial, institutional and industrial settings. They prepare a variety of surfaces (wood, masonry, drywall, plaster, concrete, synthetics, stucco and metal) prior to the application of materials such as paint, high performance coatings, waterproofing, fireproofing, varnish, shellac, wall coverings and special decorative finishes. The 3-year Painter-Decorator apprenticeship program outlines a hybrid approach of on-the-job learning (OJL) and related classroom instruction Section 2 Content Section 2 Content Left Section 2 Content Right Section 3 Content Section 3 Content Left Section 3 Content Right Section 4 Content Section 4 Content Left Section 4 Content Right Section 5 Content Section 5 Content Left Section 5 Content Right Section 6 Content Section 6 Content Left Section 6 Content Right Button Content Rail Content 1 Untitled [1] Untitled [2] Page Content Search in this Organization Other Ways to Search Advanced Search Browse Organizations Filter results: TypeCourseExamApprenticeshipActive ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-001307/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 3 Read More ApprenticeshipCOR 3.0 Leadership and Professional DevelopmentInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-001207/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 4 Read More ApprenticeshipCOR 2.0 Health and SafetyInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-001107/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 3 Read More ApprenticeshipCOR 1.0 Introduction to the Union and Finishing TradesInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-001007/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 3 Read More Apprenticeship9.10 Decorative FinishesInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000907/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 3 Read More Apprenticeship9.09 Wood FinishesInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000807/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 3 Read More Apprenticeship9.08 Abrasive BlastingInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000707/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 3 Read More Apprenticeship9.07 Wall CoveringsInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000607/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 7 Read More Apprenticeship9.06 Spray PaintingInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000507/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 4 Read More Apprenticeship9.05 Identifying Paints Coatings and MaterialsInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000407/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 7 Read More Apprenticeship9.04 Non-Spray Application of CoatingsInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000307/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 6 Read More Apprenticeship9.03 Surface Preparation and CleaningInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000207/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 7 Read More Apprenticeship9.02 Introduction to the Painter-Decorator TradeInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) ApprenticeshipACE ID: IFTI-000107/01/2016 to 06/30/2026Recommended credits: 1 Read More Apprenticeship9.01 Health and Safety of the Painter-DecoratorInternational Finishing Trades Institute (IFTI) Loading...
