Whether you're early in your geotechnical career or a seasoned deep foundation professional looking to expand your skill set, the Deep Foundations Dynamic Testing & Analysis Seminar/Workshop (DFDTA) offers a valuable opportunity to build practical knowledge and develop new proficiencies.

Presented through the ongoing partnership between Pile Dynamics, Inc. (PDI) and the Pile Driving Contractors Association (PDCA), DFDTA is offered twice each year traditionally in the spring in Orlando, Fla., and again in the fall in Cleveland, Ohio.

Registration is now open for the 2026 Cleveland DFDTA, taking place Oct. 19-21 at the PDI home office. This three-day educational program provides expert instruction on a range of deep foundation testing and analysis topics, including wave mechanics, nondestructive testing, PDA applications, CAPWAP and more.

Participants will receive presentation materials in digital and/or hard-copy formats, along with a Certificate of Completion. Those who choose to take and pass the optional exam at the conclusion of the program can earn proficiency certification. Attendees also can earn up to 20 Professional Development Hours (PDH).

If you missed the spring DFDTA in Orlando, the Cleveland program is your final opportunity to participate in 2026. The program returns to Orlando next March, but professionals looking to strengthen their dynamic testing and analysis knowledge before then can take advantage of this fall's three-day workshop.

Reserve your seat for the 2026 Cleveland DFDTA and take the next step in developing your deep foundation expertise.
