Masonry Institute of BC Training Fund

The Masonry Institute of BC Training Fund is designed to support people entering into or continuing education in the masonry trades.

The Masonry Institute of BC has evolved from masonry organizations, which have been promoting the local masonry industry for over 50 years. The programs of the MIBC are supported by the Masonry Producers Association of BC, and the BC Chapter of the Canadian Masonry Contractors Association.

The mandate of the MIBC is to enhance the development of masonry in BC through technical support to designers, educators and building officials.

This training fund was developed to provide additional supports to masons wishing to advance their skill level within the trade. Each recipient will receive up to $1950 to be applied to training costs incurred at the Trowel Trades Training Association.
