PPWS 2005 Overview
About PCA > PPWS 2005

The Professional Promoters' Workshop 2005

May 3-5, 2005
Skokie, IL

BACKGROUND
In 2004, the Regional Cement Promotion Groups and many of their promotion partners asked to re-instate the popular Professional Promoters’ Workshop (PPWS)—the only national forum offering unprecedented networking opportunities, support programs, and sharing of best practices in the local promotion of concrete. The Portland Cement Association, which conducted the PPWS’s in the 90’s with the co-sponsorship of the NRMCA and ACPA, obtained the endorsement of the North American Concrete Alliance (NACA) and its member organizations to conduct the Workshop on June 9th and 10th 2004 at the North Shore Doubletree Conference Center.
