Oldcastle Materials Group Wins 2014 NRMCA Innovation in Training Award

Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

It is with great pleasure that the Educational Activities Committee announces that the 2014 Innovation in Training Award is presented to Old Castle Materials Group’s, for its "Environmental Education for the Construction Industries." 

In a concerted effort to increase learning retention from its annual compliance-driven environmental training, a new delivery process was developed. Rather than fall back on traditional Power Point lectures, the new instruction centers on small groups’ problem solving by sharing issues, concerns, and solutions around specific environmental regulatory challenges and best practices for the ready mixed concrete industry. Post training measurement shows engagement levels increased substantially with the new focus.  

The award will be presented at NRMCA’s ConcreteWorks awards luncheon, Monday, September 22, at the JW Marriott, in Indianapolis. As the winning entry, "Environmental Education for the Construction Industries" will also be featured in 2015 edition of NRMCA’s Concrete InFocus quarterly magazine.
