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.
