Â鶹Èë¿Ú

Â鶹Èë¿Ú is now accepting proposals on a wide range of industry-relevant topics that cover HVAC, architectural sheet metal, industrial sheet metal, residential HVAC/sheet metal, and testing-adjusting-balancing. Cutting-edge educational programming remains one of the most important facets of the Â鶹Èë¿Ú Annual Convention. 

Topics and content should be appropriate for the typical 50-minute presentation duration. All presentations should focus on critical issues in the industry, engage participants, and provide participants with a measurable takeaway from the program. Sessions designed to queue up a product, service, or an external educational course will not be permitted.

Across all sessions, preference will be given to sessions that include one or more Â鶹Èë¿Ú member contractors as a member of the presentation team.

Format Types

To engage participants, there are three different formats (presentation, panel discussion, and interactive workshop) for our educational sessions at the 2024 Â鶹Èë¿Ú Annual Convention. You must select only one presentation type for each submission.

Education Session Content Types

Your proposal should focus on hot topics and critical issues in the industry that benefit Â鶹Èë¿Ú contractors' business processes, practices, and growth and their employees' personal and professional growth. Some of the general topic areas include:

Business Best Practices & Financial Management

Leadership

Productivity and Project Management

Standards, Safety & Regulations

Technology & Innovation
