It’s time to step up.
The shortage of installers is an industry-wide problem and it needs an industry-wide solution. If you benefit from the floor covering industry in anyway, this is your problem too, and it’s time to be part of the solution.
Will you step up to help resolve the shortage of installers?
The Floor Covering Education Foundation (FCEF) exists to bring awareness to the opportunities in the flooring industry, recruit new talent, aid in the funding of the student’s education, and facilitate job placement for these individuals into flooring industry careers.
Our sponsors, supporters and donors make it all possible…
An industry solution requires industry support. We are thankful to all the companies, organizations, and individuals who have already stepped up to support our programs through financial support, donations of tools & supplies, and helping us share our message.
Stepping Up
The FCEF was established to assist the floor covering industry in several ways depending on the current needs of the industry. Our three primary areas of focus are recruitment, scholarships and placement.
The FCEF Board of Directors, staff and supporters are stepping up to support the entire industry. How will you step up to be a part of the solution?

We need everyone…
When we reverse the decline of qualified flooring installers, everyone in the flooring industry wins – from retailers to suppliers, distributers, and even current installers. That’s why we need everyone’s help so that we can all win.
Retailers
As retailers, you need installation craftsman to make your customers happy. A floor sale isn’t complete until it’s installed, and installed well.
Suppliers & Distributors
You can’t sell more if it can’t be installed. Demand for new flooring is increasing. More installation craftsmen equal more sales.
Installers
It’s great to be in high demand, but how much would your business benefit from having more helpers and more craftsmen on your team?
