Region 1 of the Associated Schools of Construction will host its annual Conference and Competition November 10-12, 2022 at the Hilton Albany, NY Downtown. During this event, on Friday and Saturday, there will be several opportunities for faculty of member schools and partners across the industry to provide training sessions and/or presentations on topics related to the construction industry.
The intended speakers are hoped to come from both industry and among faulty at colleges/universities across the ASC Region 1 geography (http://region1.ascweb.org). Graduate students may also be considered as potential speakers. Presentation/training slots will be determined based upon needs of the presenters/trainers, space availability, and topic importance/relevance, as determined by the ASC Region 1 Leadership.
The intended audience for the presentations/training sessions is industry members as well as faculty and students of the regional colleges and universities. Sessions will occur on Friday, 11 November and Saturday, 12 December. To maximize industry participation in sessions, those that are more geared to that audience will most likely be scheduled for Friday, with those focused for ASC students will be on Saturday. Of note, on Saturday, the student competition members will also be presenting the results of their competition work efforts, providing a day of robust content for those seeking training and learning opportunities (non-competition training/presentations will be scheduled later in the day so as to minimize overlap).
Please fill out the form below to provide information pertaining to the training or presentation that you wish to provide at the Conference/Competition. Deadline for consideration of your proposal is 1 October 2022.
