AGC has waived the requirement that the application be submitted online and now offers downloadable applications in PDF format to make it easier to apply. Please note: All supporting material must be received by AGC by 5 p.m. EST on May 1, 2009. Awards will be given to a Chapter and member in each of the following categories:

• Craft
• Supervisory
• Project & Executive Management

One award will be given to the outstanding Instructor of the Year, and a Grand Award will be presented to a firm or Chapter that demonstrates learning and performance as a top concern, reaching the highest level of excellence for construction training and development programs at all levels of the organization. The first awards will be presented at the joint HR Professionals and Training & Development Conferences, Oct. 28-29 in Atlanta, Ga. Don't miss out on this exciting new program.
