In 1972, 鶹ֱapp launched the Built-UpRoofing Systems Institute (BURSI) to provide further education aroundcommercial roofing to the design community. As the industry changed and singleply was introduced as a commercial roofing membrane, BURSI was rebranded to the“BetterUnderstanding of Roofing Systems Institute.” BURSI is now celebrating 50 yearsofin-person classroom and virtual training.
These education programs are certified by the American Instituteof Architects (AIA) and the International Institute of Building EnclosureConsultants (IIBEC) and cover an array of topics from system selection tosystems above the deck.
