Industrial Valves
2020-11-10 08:00 - 2020-11-19 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Webinar
Upgrade your valve knowledge from anywhere, with Subject Matter Expert, Davi Correia, Mechanical Engineer and Consultant.
Industrial valves are complex applications and in order to ensure they perform safely and efficiently, it is crucial to not only understand how a valve works, but also all the processes associated with it, including design, manufacturing, inspection and operation.
The Industrial Valves course has two modules. Module I focuses on valves as pieces of equipment, exploring how they work and the main types commonly used in the Oil & Gas industry. Module II was designed to give a broader view of the different ancillary processes that surround a valve application, such supplier auditing and prototype testing. The table of contents for both Modules can be seen below:

Virtual Valve Forum plus Valve Basics
2020-11-09 08:00 - 2020-11-12 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Webinar
2020 VIRTUAL VALVE FORUM plus VALVE BASICS
INCLUDES SEVEN LESSONS FROM OUR VALVES 101 COURSE PLUS VIDEO DEMOS!
For nearly a dozen years, VMA has provided its Valve Basics course to thousands of people who are connected to or working in the valve industry and eager to enhance their knowledge: end users, specifiers, manufacturers, distributors, suppliers and even engineering students via scholarships!
This November – in conjunction with the Virtual Valve Forum – VMA presents Virtual Valves 101. Our experienced presenters cover the major valve types, including linear, check, quarter-turn and pressure-relief, plus actuation basics. In early 2021, Virtual Valves 201 will be offered for those who want to take the next step in learning about these critical flow control products, including actuators, controls, automation and more. All virtual presentations will include videos to show how products work and to help attendees better understand the concepts being discussed.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course was created specifically for newcomers to the industry so it is ideally suited for recent graduates and engineers in the early stages of their careers. In addition, those who understand the basics of mechanical valves can expand their knowledge by attending the electric portion of the program. Both courses can be taken, or attendees can choose to attend one or another.
Attendees typically include:

A variety of professionals employed at plants and facilities that use or work with valves, actuators and controls
More experienced professionals with knowledge of one specific product type but in need of an overview of the entire spectrum of valves, actuators and controls.
New employees at valve, actuator and control companies
Personnel from EPC or AEC firms who are involved with specifying valves
Distributors and manufacturers’ reps who sell these products
Companies that provide supplies and services to the industry
And anyone who could use a refresher course on valves, actuators and controls!

The Valve Basics course has been well-received by upper-level mechanical engineering students who have attended previous seminars. Their participation is made possible by scholarships from association members and others interested in supporting valve training for the next generation.
SPONSORSHIP INFORMATION
VMA is developing a sponsorship program so attendees will still be able to learn about new products and services from industry suppliers. This will provide an excellent opportunity for suppliers to “meet” people from across the industry. Because many of our attendees are in the early phases of their careers, they are typically eager to learn about your products and services!

Manufacturing Day 2020 - #MFGDay20
2020-10-02
#MFGDay20 is More Important than Ever.
The National Association of Manufacturers is the largest manufacturing association in the United States, representing small and large manufacturers in every industrial sector across the country. Manufacturing employs more than 12.1 million people, contributes $2.36 trillion to the American economy annually, and accounts for 63% of private-sector research and development. The NAM is a powerful voice of the manufacturing community and a leading advocate for a policy agenda that helps manufacturers compete in the global economy – which is why celebrating Manufacturing Day – even if only online – is more important than ever.
The public must continue to see how critical manufacturing is to our country. Facing an unprecedented pandemic, manufacturers have stepped up to produce sanitizer, test kits, personal protective equipment, and a range of other materials to support Americans through this unique period of time. Throughout our nation’s response effort—and during Manufacturing Day in particular—we hope that more young people will see how creators respond when our country needs them most and choose to join in this effort by pursuing a career in modern manufacturing. This is why you are invited to participate in #MFGDay20 on October 2nd, which is really only the start of a month-long celebration.
Read our article in the digital magazine to learn more about #MFGDay20 and use that hashtag to follow along online!

The Road to Canada’s Economic Recovery Runs Through Indigenous Communities
2020-09-22 10:00 - 11:00 (America/Denver) | Webinar
Strategic Stream | In partnership with Konstruct Digital, EnergyNow, and Empowering Pumps & Equipment
September 22, 2020 | 10:00 a.m. MDT
As Canada forges its path to economic recovery, the time is now to engage in meaningful dialogue on the best direction forward.
This includes ensuring Indigenous communities participate in the natural resource economy. The energy industry is already one of the largest employers of Indigenous peoples in Canada and a significant supporter of Indigenous-owned businesses. Yet there is an opportunity to expand Indigenous participation in this sector.
Join our esteemed panel to discuss how mutually beneficial resource development can offer such an opportunity to help rebuild the Canadian economy and contribute to the economic and social sustainability of Indigenous communities.
