The American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) recently announced the availability of new online and classroom educational courses addressing choosing the right glass for fenestration.

The courses, entitled Glass: The Right Choice, were developed by the association’s Glass Material Council and are accredited through the American Institute of Architects (AIA). 

According to the AAMA, there are many aspects to consider when choosing glass, and the courses cover these, including the uses of glass, including insulating units, safety glass, and fire-rated glass. The course finishes with a discussion of the methods of measuring and evaluating glass performance to make more informed glass choices.

In addition to the glass courses listed above, AAMA offers three other online courses and four additional classroom courses as part of the AAMA Continuing Education Licensing Program. All of these courses are available on the Continuing Education page of the AAMA Web site or e-mail Angela Dickson at adickson@aamanet.org.
