3. BE UP-TO-DATE ON NEW STANDARDS Learn the ins-and-outs of the 2022 editions of NFPA 13, NFPA 13R, NFPA 13D, and NFPA 20 and the 2019 edition of NFPA 14.

This meal offer is valid for one breakfast and one lunch per night reserved at the Bellagio Las Vegas in the AFSA group block.
5. LEARN THE TRICKS AND TRAPS before you take steps to expand your business plan into other areas such as inspections, residential, or storage or with dozens of member-driven educational sessions with hundreds of ideas.
