Civil Engineers Love CECON

This conference is true catalyst for career development. Beyond the technical knowledge exchange, there’s no other event at which you can expand your network with an impressive breadth leaders from across all parts of our industry and state.

CECON provides you with the opportunity to sharpen not only your technical skills, but your soft skills as well. Leadership and professional development are the most talked about topics in addition to how you can improve technically.

I get the benefit of marketing my firm and meeting individuals to do business with. I also get to learn about interesting and innovative projects that are changing the way we design, construct, and build.
