5-HOUR AIA/ICC SEMINAR PRESENTATION GUIDE - MCKEON DOOR
COVID-19 Adjustments

         Due to the group meeting restrictions imposed during the pandemic and with
         the help of Dan Quatier of Interior Tech, our Pacific Northwestern United
         States distributor, please see the following guidelines that were developed for
         virtual 5-hour presentations:
         	Presentation venue - a web-based presentation platform hosted by
           the distributor. Dave can travel to the host’s office to broadcast or once
           signed on to the webinar the host can deem him the presenter and Dave
           can then present from his home office.
         	Presentation time frame - the 5 hours are typically broken up into
           1 hour-40 minute segments over 3 days, usually Tuesday, Wednesday
           and Thursday. This time frame seems to be most convenient for the
           attendee when it encompasses the lunch hour.

         Pros
         	Larger markets yield 80-120 attendees for the in-person seminars, these
           same markets have yields of 260-410 attendees.
         	The virtual seminar seems to reach out and touch folks who may not
           normally attend in-person seminars due to travel distances.
         	We have been encouraged by the amount of attendees who stay con-
           nected at the end of the seminar in order to hear and participate in
           the questions and answer period generated by the chat box during the
           formal presentation. This attendance has consistently been in the 75%+
           range with no requirement to remain connected for course credit.
            No cost for venue, meals or travel.

         Cons
         	Difficult to engage for both the teacher and learner without being there
           in-person.
            Cannot monitor whether or not someone disengages or even listens.

         If you are interested in hosting a web-based 5-hour seminar, please contact
         Dave Dodge for potential dates. (Webinar flyer Sample 8 on page 16.)

5-HOUR AIA/ICC SEMINAR PRESENTATION GUIDE - MCKEON DOOR
Introduction

           Perhaps one of the most successful marketing tools we have incorporated
           at McKEON is the 5-hour AIA/ICC seminar. Since we receive a great many
           requests from our distributor network for information on how to plan and im-
           plement this program, we have elected to offer downloadable instructions and
           sample forms for your use.

           The distributor who originally led out in this experience and has a tremen-
           dous track record with many events and large numbers of attendees is Mays
           Maune McWard. Since the seminar’s inception several other distributors have
           done an outstanding job with this event planning. We have asked Gary Mays
           and his group to put together a “recipe for success” for your reference and
           use.

           We have also included testimonials from attendees of past seminars that
           may be helpful as you solicit attendance from local firms to include architects,
           code officials and fire officials. Although these are the primary target attend-
           ees, others who have found the seminar beneficial are code consultants, fire
           protection engineers, building owner/maintenance groups and contractors.

           Benefits

           The seminar is registered with AIA for 5 hours of AIA/CES/LUs and with ICC
           for .5 hours of ICC/CEUs. This course allows you as the distributor to put
           multiple decision makers in one room for five hours of instruction relative to
           the building codes and McKEON design solutions. It is a cost effective way to
           reach many entities within your marketplace all in one day.

Procedure, checklist and documents used
to establish the 5-hour presentation and
assure good attendance.
           1. Identify the audience: Are you presenting to AHJ or architects?
              a.	If you don’t already have your own database contact your local AIA or
                  ICC chapter and offer to provide a half day seminar “free of charge”
              b.	Identify your local AIA chapter Education Chairperson. Meet with them
                  about the presentation and ask if they will send out the invitation. This
                  offers instant credibility to the program.
              c.	Identify your local ICC chapter Education Chairperson. Meet with them
                  about the presentation and ask if they will send out the invitation. This
                  offers instant credibility to the program.
           2.	Consider a date and a venue before you send out a formal invitation. You
               want to be sure not to compete with another major event that will limit your
               audience.
               a.	Send out a “soft RSVP” to see if there is adequate interest or any ma-
                   jor conflicts. (Sample 1 on page 6)
           3.	Select and negotiate with the venue about cost and food costs.
               a.	Hotels are notorious for making the food a mandatory part of the con-
                   tract. Stay away from this if at all possible.
               b.	Look for an engineer’s club, community center, etc. and see if you can
                   have the food catered separately.
               c.	Sometimes your local AHJ or ICC chapter will have a city hall you can
                   use free of charge and they may pay for the food if you provide the
                   presenter free of charge.
           4.	Send out the formal invitation, by email, 6 weeks in advance; follow up
               with another email to those who did not respond in 3 weeks, then 1 week.
               People have different response times. Some people will respond the same
               day, most will respond within the last two weeks, so don’t panic!
               a.	The day prior to the event send a reminder to all who did RSVP. (They
                   will forget.)
               b.	Put a price for the seminar for only those who RSVP and do not at-
                   tend. Suggest $35 and indicate this is for the food commitment.
               c.	Include a copy of the presentation outline (Sample 2 on page 7) and
                   the bio of the Dave Dodge. (Sample 3 on page 10)
           5.	Guestimate the attendee count and order from McKEON the following

5-HOUR AIA/ICC SEMINAR PRESENTATION GUIDE - MCKEON DOOR
items for each attendee:
       a. Fire Door Systems, a Guide to Code Compliance
       b. McKEON General Catalog
    	Note: This is good opportunity to use your line cards.
    6.	This is a professional event and should have the formality of same. Don’t
        wing it, have a script of introductions, breaks, etc. (Sample 4 on page 11).

Sample 1: “Soft RSVP”

          Dear Valued Architects,

          I have been in your office a number of times introducing metal wall panels,
          louvers and sunshades. We are excited to announce our representation of
          McKEON, a steel fire door company with code approved egress and also
          offers a new fabric fire rated door product. McKEON is also the only manu-
          facturer to build a horizontal steel fire door used to close off an atrium in case
          of a fire and may eliminate the need and cost of a smoke evacuation system!

          We will visit your offices during the next couple of months to introduce the
          McKEON product and its unique design options, but before that occurs we
          wanted to give you the opportunity to attend a AIA CEU credited Lunch and
          Learn of the IBC as it relates to fire doors, egress and the code requirements
          surrounding opening protectives. (See attached presentation sheet for more
          information). We are going to hold this group presentation on (DATE and
          TIME) in (CITY AND STATE) at a community center or hotel and wanted to
          get a preliminary head count from all the individuals who may want to attend
          so we can be assured to have the correct size facility. The lunch would be
          sponsored by our office and 5 hours of HSW credit would be provided.

          Could you please reply with a simple yes or no from your office and provide
          an approximate head count if you would like to attend this presentation? A
          formal announcement and invitation will be sent out in the next couple weeks.

          Please give your response to (NAME and EMAIL) or call at our office number
          listed below.

          Thanks and we look forward to seeing all of you again.

          Regards,

          (NAME)

                David has been involved in the construction industry since 1975.
                With   an     extensive   background    in   project   estimating   and
                management and a bachelor’s degree in business management,
                David soon realized a great deal of success in building product
                marketing and sales. Within this venue he found his passion –
                building code development and architectural design compliance.
                Since 1988, he has assisted architectural firms in understanding and
                implementing the provisions of the model codes as they pertain to
                fire and life safety. His particular focus is on the fire door industry,
                promoting cutting edge technology to resolve code compliance
                challenges.

          Welcome & introduction to MMM Staff – Today is a continued effort of one of
          our core commitments to educating the construction community in architec-
          tural design and code solutions. Our staff is made up of a variety of engineers
          ready to assist you in your next design solution. Let me introduce some of
          our staff here today. First is our only non-engineer but keeps us all orga-
          nized, and is our administrative assistant Sheri Haley, she is my Queen of
          first impressions at the office and is responsible for everything you see here
          today and will be also make sure that you all receive proper credit for today’s
          presentation. Curtis Jeisy, a U of I grad in general Engineering and business,
          handles the western part of Missouri and Kansas.Joe Filla is a Rolla grad in
          civil engineering and is our Estimating Manager. Nathan Homann is another
          U of I grad in mechanical engineering and handles the eastern Missouri and
          Southern Illinois. My partner, Patrick McWard holds a degree in manufactur-
          ing engineering from MIZZOU, and doesn’t hesitate to rub the Tigers football
          record in the nose of his younger engineers. My educational background is
          mechanical engineering, after graduating I went to work for a design build
          mechanical contractor for 5 years and for the last 25 years have been consult-
          ing architects and AHJ’s on design solutions with similar programs that you
          are seeing here today. Our company is an industry member of the AIA, CSI,
          ICC, and MABOI, Missouri Association of Building Officials and Inspectors, I
          think we have about 20 members of MABOI here today so thank you for com-
          ing. I’m honored to be serving on the educational board of MABOI for 2011.

          Breaks at 10:30, Noon Lunch brought in, 2:00 break for more calls, Finish at
          3:00, coffee & soda served throughout the day.

          Please set your cell phones to vibrate or turn them off. (Give yourself the gift
          of Focus)

          Our Speaker, David Dodge, will be available for questions at the breaks, at
          lunch and tomorrow morning at your offices if you would like to meet on a
          specific project or subject.

Restrooms, coffee all day, lunches sandwiches, chips, apple, cookie, assort-
     ed sodas and water

     Survey - part of our desire on putting on these programs is that we want to be
     sure the information presented here today is relevant, practical, of high qual-
     ity, and will contribute to the success of your building design or profession.
     Please let us know by filling out the survey in your packets. And let us know if
     you want to discuss a particular code or design privately, Dave again will be
     available tomorrow morning for a short time before he departs.

     We will register you for the SD credits, and in thought of conservation your
     certificates will be emailed to the address given when you signed up. Rather
     than printed and mailed so you can keep in your electronic education file.

     Our presentation today covers Understanding the International Building
     Code, emphasis will be on Chapter 7 (Fire and Smoke protection features)
     and chapter 10 (Means of Egress). You will see many case studies of design
     solutions that satisfied a certain code or life safety concern of an AHJ. Specif-
     ic topics and case studies will include atrium designs, shaft enclosures, area
     of separation, exit access and exit discharge, travel distance limitations, exit
     enclosures and exit passageways just to name a few. The presentation does
     have a level of formality in that we need to cover a lot of topics, fundamentals
     and applications to earn the LU credits but we also encourage dialog and
     questions about the subjects during the presentation. Often your most difficult
     design or life safety issue has already been thought out by another designer
     or AHJ somewhere else in the country and David Dodge was involved in the
     solution. So don’t leave with unanswered questions.

     Now here to introduce our speaker is my partner, Patrick McWard……………

     Pat introduces Dave from Bio Sheet………….

     At 10:30 break: Introduce the Maune Architectural Incubator & Sign up sheet

     At lunch break: Sign-up sheet is at name tag table; introduce our next year’s
     programs at MMA office. This same program will be held in southern Illinois
     and Kansas City in 2011.

     At 2:00 PM break: Don’t forget the surveys and if you wish to consult with
     Dave tomorrow at your office before he flies back home.

     At 3:00 finish: Thank all for coming, let us know if a follow up is necessary, or
     a presentation for your office or code staff. We have an abbreviated version. If
     you haven’t yet signed up for your credits please see Sheri.

          Code 50 Presentation (Fire Door Systems, A Guide to Code Compliance)
          Presented by David Dodge, CSI, CDT

          Comments by Mark Masek, President of SACICC

                 “Thank you for the information. Again, I would like to thank you for
                  the content and the style of your presentation. David, in my opinion,
                  you are in a group of three instructors that are leaps and bounds
                  above most others. The two other instructors, in the group of three,
                  would include Steve Thomas and Gregory Keith.”

           omments by Edward H. Burkhalter, Jr., R.A., CSI
          C
          President of Design Associates Architects, Inc., Conyers, GA

                 “I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the Seminar that David
                  Dodge presented to the attendees on Wednesday.

          	His presentation was very refreshing given the topic of building and
            life safety codes … Certainly his knowledge of the IBC and LSC was
            as good as I have ever seen in my career as an Architect!

          	In all the years since the late 80’s when I started attending these
            seminars, I have never seen the State Fire Marshal’s office repre-
            sented like it was yesterday … It told me that the State FM office
            must have had some problems with the topics being discussed.

          	As a side note, with 41 years experience as an Architect, I have al-
            ways told the young Graduate Architects who have trained under me
            to never forget this statement “As an Architect you have a license to
            protect the safety and well being of the people who occupy a building

19                                                                5-hour Presentation Guide
that you have designed. If you ever forget this statement and are will-
            ing to affect the occupant’s safety for any reason, you need to get out
            of the profession immediately.” … Certainly David Dodge expresses
            my sentiments exactly.

     	In closing, thanks again for a great seminar and you can certainly
       pass along my comments to David Dodge.”

     Minneapolis State AIA Convention - November 11, 2011
     240-250 attendees for 2 hours

     Comments by Brent Hall of W.L. Hall Company, Minneapolis, MN:

     	“At least five people came up to each one of us and said, inde-
       pendently, that Dave’s presentation was the best presentation they
       had been to at the entire convention. An older gentlemen even said
       it was the best seminar he had been to at a MN AIA convention ...
       ever!”

     	“Flying Dave around the country is not cheap. I just wanted to let you
       know how well he connects with architects and how well his mes-
       sage is received. I estimate that we had approx. 240 - 250 architects
       at the presentation.”
