As an added value, education participants earn Professional Development Hours credit. Attendees can also take advantage of industry certifications offered by the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO).
Disaster Simulation Labs
Desi Matel-Anderson, FEMA’s first and former chief innovation advisor, will lead the new Disaster Simulation Labs. Matel-Anderson will help attendees explore needs and concepts to create tailored and innovative solutions to meet a variety of crisis needs using a proprietary three-step design process that helps organizations understand the core issues and needs that are not being optimally addressed in any given crisis, and become better prepared for sustainable resiliency.
Learning on the Show Floor
In order to maximize attendees’ time, ICUEE uses ‘walking’ classrooms on the show floor to provide a hands-on overview of topics geared to those new to the industry or wanting a refresher.
Field Classroom topics include aerial devices, electrical hazards and equipment, equipment hydraulics, fleet management, horizontal directional drilling, safety, trenching, underground
Eat and Learn Workshops
Leveraging attendees’ full schedules, ICUEE offers additional learning opportunities during Tuesday’s lunch, Wednesday’s breakfast, and Wednesday’s lunch.
These sessions include Drone Panel: Effective Applications in Utility Industry, The Business Model for Building and Maintaining a Smart Utility Infrastructure, and Workforce Development – Generational Story.
