The International Masonry Training and Education Foundation provides training, certifications and continuing education programs to members of the International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers. These programs begin with pre-apprenticeship training and related training instruction (RTI) for BAC apprentices, and continue throughout a craftworker’s career in brick, stone, tile, marble, terrazzo, pointing-caulking-cleaning, refractory, plaster, cement and mosaic work. New cladding systems and installation technologies are also emerging, and IMTEF provides advanced training for these opportunities as well. IMTEF is funded through a grant from the International Masonry Institute, a labor-management organization created by the members of BAC and the contractors who employ them.
