New this year, we are kicking off two highly requested summits:

  • Construction Mental Health Summit ($299) on Monday, January 13, 2025
    Sponsored by Procore
    A half day workshop that will focus on the importance of understanding and leading through vulnerability, courage, connection, and compassion. There are many things we can do to take care of ourselves at a deeper level as well as take care of those we lead at a deeper level. Participants will join in this interactive experience to discuss the importance of courage, connection, and compassion in our personal and professional values.
  • Construction Risk Management Summit ($299) on Thursday, January 16, 2025
    Sponsored by CNA
    A half day workshop designed to push the limits for senior safety and health professionals or those with risk management responsibilities. This summit will focus on key topics in construction risk management including auto, workers comp, rework, prequalification, and an overview of the economics of an injury. You will hear from senior EHS leaders, contractor safety professionals, and directly from the insurance industry. This inaugural summit will leave you more knowledgeable about insurance and risk management in construction. 

In addition to four days of education and training, attendees will have two days to learn from leading manufacturers and exhibitors about new technologies, software, and products at our conference exhibit.
