Members of the Education Advisory Council for CONSTRUCT have been announced. The event, which includes the CSI Annual Convention, will be held at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence this September.

Supporting the development of the event’s more than 40 educational sessions and tours, Informa has announced the members of the 2017 Education Advisory Council for CONSTRUCT. These 12 people will make crucial decisions regarding the education program for the show, which will take place in Providence, Rhode Island, September 13 to 15.

“Being a part of the CONSTRUCT Education Advisory Council is an exciting opportunity to have a voice and help create a program that best meets the needs of our attendees and addresses relevant topics,” said Cherise Lakeside, CSI, CDT, a specifier with Ankrom-Moisan Architects and one of this year’s chosen council members. “CONSTRUCT will have something to offer every discipline and level of experience, from young to seasoned professionals. I am honoured to participate.”
