MEET THE MBI

EDUCATION ADVOCACY COMMITTEE!

BY TOM FULCHER DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION

Industry education is one of the staples of Master Builders of Iowa and development of industry human capital is something that we take a great deal of pride in. The commercial building industry is constantly evolving -- as an organization, we do our best to keep up with the latest in industry trends to assure we are delivering relevant and timely programs. One of the key ingredients of MBI being able to play a significant role in the development of our industry is our Education Advocacy committee that is led this year by the Commitee Chairman, Eric White, Estes Construction. The Fifty-two member committee provide the MBI staff with insights and guidance and serve as a sounding board throughout the year on relevant and timely training issues.
