IUPAT Glazing Forums

The International Union of Painters and Allied Trades is presenting forums throughout the United States and Canada to educate potential stakeholders, connect stakeholders and create partnerships around funding and labor standards opportunities brought to us by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Inflation Reduction Act, and more!

We hold two different types of glazing forums – Glass and Glazing, and Glazing Infrastructure & Workforce Development.

Glass and Glazing Forums:
These forums have a focus on AIA approved learning units specific to the glazing industry, typically offering 4-6 hours of AIA LUs to architects, glazing contractors, general contractors, developers, installers, etc. Vendors also play a role at these events, as we are connecting all facets of the Glazing Industry under one roof from the design professionals and the manufacturers, to the installers and everyone in between.

Glazing Infrastructure & Workforce Development Forums:
The purpose of these forums is to educate potential stakeholders, connect stakeholders, showcase new technologies and create partnerships around funding and labor standards opportunities brought to us by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Inflation Reduction Act, and other Federal/State Programs.
