The Associated General Contractors of America filed suit recently to compel Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to revise the questionnaire being used to reassess whether companies were eligible for Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans.

Construction employment increased by 27,000 jobs in November, as continuing robust gains in residential categories masked more sluggish increases in nonresidential jobs, according to an analysis by the Associated General Contractors of America of government data released recently.

Employees in construction take great pride in their specific job fields, and the skills for those demanding jobs become a lifestyle. But life has thrown everyone around the world a curve ball no one was trained for. The construction industry's strength and consistency onsite don’t make the stresses at home any easier. Employees’ trained eyes for inspection on construction and safety codes can’t help with virtual school and homework.

With the increasing digital transformation of the construction industry over the past decade, developers from inside and outside the industry are more interested than ever in adopting technology to meet the needs of construction professionals.

CISCA is offering a new way for you to get in front of your customers with our virtual Contractor Lunch & Learn series!
This new series will begin in January and is designed to replace the in-person presentations that are not possible during the pandemic. CISCA will promote your presentation exclusively to CISCA Contractor members so you will have the target audience you want.
By participating, CISCA staff will host a one-hour Zoom session where you will present your products/services and take questions in an open forum. CISCA will invite our contractor members to the event but you can also invite products reps, independent reps and your non-CISCA member contractor customers to join. Best of all, this opportunity is FREE to you as a CISCA member! Your only cost is to provide a lunch voucher from a food delivery service (UberEats, GrubHub, DoorDash) for each contractor registered for your presentation.
Contractors will enjoy lunch at their desk while engaging with you during a virtual presentation… just like they would have done at your in-person presentation!
Register now for this exclusive opportunity by emailing us at cisca@cisca.org.
