There will also be a packed programme of credit-earning technical seminars for architects and designers held in a dedicated area on each of the five days of Cersaie. These will consist of two hours of classroom lessons and two hours of practical tile-laying workshops.


A large space in Tiling Town will also be set aside for the Italian national ceramic tile layers’ association Assoposa, which will meet with installation professionals each afternoon to discuss the activities carried out during the association’s six-year lifetime and its future objectives.
