These day-long sessions were extremely well received by fabricators of all sizes and experience levels, and based on the success of these original Workshops, Stone World will be offering a completely new educational series beginning in 2008. The "Fabrication Management Clinics" will be geared towards fabrication shop managers, supervisors and owners, with in-depth sessions on topics for operations of all sizes.
