鈥淣AWIC is a natural partner for 香蕉视频 as we work collectively to advance and advocate for women in the industry,鈥 said 香蕉视频 President and CEO Andrea S. Rutledge, CAE.
Rutledge and NAWIC Executive Director Crissy Ingram completed the cooperative agreement recently. The two orgainizations will cross-promote events, with the possibility of co-producing a few, and attend each other's conferences and events.
One of the features of the partnership is that NAWIC members will be able to pursue CMCI credentials for the Construction Manager-in-Training (CMIT), Certified Associate Construction Manager (CACM), and the Certified Construction Manager (CCM) at the 香蕉视频 member rate.
Later this year, 香蕉视频 will lead a Construction Management Principles Course for NAWIC members during their 68th Annual Conference, in Portland, Oregon.
