NASF 1000

 

The NASF 1000 program was established to ensure that the surface finishing industry would ‎have resources to effectively address regulatory, legislative, and legal actions impacting the ‎industry, NASF members and their workplaces. All funds from the NASF 1000 program are used ‎exclusively to support specific projects and initiatives that fall outside the association’s day-to-‎day public policy activities. The sustained commitment from industry leaders has helped the NASF remain strong and ‎credible in informing regulatory decisions across the nation.

 

Please consider supporting the NASF 1000 program. If you have any questions or would like ‎additional information regarding the NASF 1000 program or the broad array of NASF public ‎policy activities, please contact info@nasf.org.

 

 

Custom Courses

 

Custom Courses allow you to mix and match over 150 courses with an AESF-qualified instructor to create a customized curriculum that meets the educational objectives of your company. Custom ‎Courses are taught over two to four days either in-person or virtually, depending on your preference. To schedule a custom course and/or to secure a quote, email info@nasf.org.
