Moderated by Dr. Stephen Pape, Ed.D, MBA, Pape Service Co., the Contractor Forum Live: Find and Keep Great People is where virtual becomes reality. One of the best features of ACCA membership is networking with top contractors across the country. ACCA has one of the industry’s top online forums. A massive success in its first showing last year, we’re bringing it back with new topics and presenters.
Moderated by Chris Yano, CEO, RYNO Strategic Solutions, and Ken Goodrich, CEO, Goettl Air Conditioning & Plumbing, the Breakfast Panel: How to Play the Game in a Down Economy features a lively discussion focused on how to win in these uncertain times. I don’t have any more info for this session – I messaged Sean but haven’t heard back
Issues Smackdown! The Contractor Town Hall lets contractors hear from issue experts on the accelerating changes facing our industry and join a lively debate about what federal, state, and code priorities ACCA and its allies should fight for over the coming year. Professional representation from DC to the code committees is a key benefit of your ACCA membership, and the Town Hall is your chance to steer the ship and join the fight!
“ACCA is thrilled to present this legendary lineup of sessions and speakers for our 2023 Conference & Expo,” said Barton James, ACCA president and CEO. “I can assure you it will be a can’t-miss event and one heck of an exciting time discussing the countless changes coming to the HVACR industry, learning how folks are leveraging those changes, and tackling the complications as a result of the changes.“
