We want to help by featuring you as the Constructor of the Month in the AIC Newsletter or CPC Update. You can also submit a project you are working on to be featured. Email [email protected] to get started.
– Join an Industry Advisory Board: AIC has 40+ University Testing sites, and we continue to look for universities to use and require the CAC Examination as part of their program. One way we can expand that number is for our CPCs to join University Industry Advisory Boards (IAB) and help promote the CAC Examination. Joining and participating on an IAB is approved for Membership & Service CPD Credits. It is also a great way to shape the future of the industry!
