The Canadian Construction Association (CCA) is proud to be hosting a high-demand event for professionals from across our industry to showcase the tools, strategies and real-world insights they can put to work right away when delivering their next project. The Construction Symposium takes place on Oct. 30–31.

“This is a pivotal time for our industry and the opportunities ahead are endless,” said Rodrigue Gilbert, CCA’s president. “We are delivering this hands-on, skills-based event for the people that are building Canada – this is an opportunity to connect with experts so that we can all build better, faster. With a strong line-up of experts, this event is sure to be a valuable experience for all attendees and raise the standard of excellence even higher for our entire industry.”

From engaging speakers to insightful panel discussions and networking sessions, the program is carefully crafted to help construction professionals solve everyday job site challenges and deliver better project outcomes. Topics will include:

  • Greener building practices – and how to implement them
  • Data-driven decision-making from site to office
  • Project management strategies that deliver results
  • Equitable procurement and smarter contracting
  • Collaboration models that break down silos
  • Post-pandemic innovations that are here to stay

In addition to the value that the program content will provide, all participants will also qualify for accreditation from various professional organizations, including two credits which are valid for construction management professionals applying for Gold Seal Certification or Professional Gold Seal Certification. “As our country looks to strengthen its economy and build major infrastructure, our industry needs to meet the moment,” said Gilbert. “The Best Practices in Construction Symposium is just one way of ensuring that we’re all operating at our best and rise to the occasion.”
