Hands-on Learning Opportunities Available at FGIA Fall Conference

Several opportunities for hands-on industry experience and learning will be offered during the 2026 Fenestration and Glazing Industry Alliance (FGIA) Fall Conference in Calgary, AB. Those visiting the city for the conference will have the chance to try their hands at proper window installation techniques, identifying flaws in insulated glass units (IGUs) and assessing color space in black vinyl profiles.

“Hands-on learning can provide a level of understanding that can’t be replicated otherwise,” says Florica Vlad, FGIA events manager. “These interactive experiences will allow attendees to apply best practices, build confidence in their skills and engage directly with the products and processes that shape our industry. By pairing practical learning opportunities with our technical sessions, we are empowering professionals to return to their organizations with knowledge they can apply immediately.”
