Getting More Women Involved Through NWiR Training
Jun. 08, 2022
2022 JM听Pinnacle Contractor Rackley Roofing hosted a training for their local National听Women in Roofing (NWiR) chapter鈥檚 spring meeting at Rackley Roofing University.听The event was sponsored by our local sales agent team (Larimer Shannon Group) and
JM.
Michelle听Boykin and Megan Malone were the Rackley Roofing hosts. Megan did a great job organizing the overall event, and Rackley Roofing President Curtis Sutton also听spent some time with the group. Our JM sales team catered a Lunch and Learn,听with Dave Pratt and Dan Hollis giving the 18 attendees an industry and supply听chain update, a Roofing 101 overview as well as a codes update.
After the听presentation, the group participated in hands-on TPO training sessions. JM鈥檚 Jeff听Kramer and Derrick McKinney did a first-class job both preparing for and听conducting the training. The group then divided into four smaller groups and听rotated through stations focused on seam welding, corners, patches and other听detail work. Two female Rackley installers joined Jeff and Derrick to run the听training stations. It was great to see the overall attendee engagement with the听Rackley installers; the event highlighted that the roofing industry is an听option for anyone!听
