The opportunity to meet with vendors, see the latest products and network with colleagues all in one location is so beneficial.”

Last year, scholarship recipients had bonds and plans for more than $13.5 billion in renovation and construction projects for 2018–2020. The program provided key decision makers from more than 130 universities, community , and schools/districts with high-quality education, tours, and networking crucial to their professional development.
