Join AIA Pennsylvania and the Keystone Energy Efficiency Alliance today at 1pm for "How our industry can navigate current reopening guidelines and work to ensure our long-term success through coordinated planning and advocacy" and earn 1 AIA LU credit.
KEEA & AIA are teaming up for a members-only discussion to explore how our respective industries are navigating the reopening process in Pennsylvania. We'll share how our associations are continuing to plan and advocate for the long-term health of our industries.
Attendees will hear from two speakers who modified their operations during the shutdown and are now ramping back up to full capacity. How did they dramatically alter day-to-day operations? What kinds of troubleshooting has been necessary in their return to work?
Then KEEA and AIA will share the work we are continuing to do on behalf of our respective members to ensure stakeholders and elected officials understand the importance of our industries and the workers who make everything possible.
We will also want to hear from our members on what obstacles you see coming as you work to get back to capacity, and how we can advocate on your behalf.
Meet the Speakers
