Institute of Concrete Technology’s Post

🇺🇸🇨🇦We are extremely pleased to have invited representation at the American Concrete Institute Spring Convention in Toronto with our President, Colin Nessfield FICT, Executive Officer Edwin Trout and Vice President John Reddy in attendance along with many other ICT members. Here is a midterm report of the first two days activities. 📜 A huge highlight has been The ICT receiving "The Strategic Advancement Award" from ACI President Michael Paul for the long standing partnership of the ICT with ACI and the drive to develop training and certification of concrete technicians on a wider global outreach. 🤳 We even stole a "selfie" on stage with the "king of selfies", Michael Paul 😜 👏 Congratulations to Honorary Fellow of the ICT Khaled Awad for receiving the highest possible recognition from the ACI as an Honorary Lifetime Member. 👨💼 Events kicked off on Sunday morning with John Reddy giving an update on ICT activities at the International Forum hosted by ACI Vice President Maria Juenger. Robert Lewis then welcomed delegates to the International Lunch with a fantastic technical presentation by guest speakers on the Gordie Howe bridge project connecting Canada and America. This is the longest cable stay bridge in North America! 🥳 Fun times were had on Monday to recognise Robert Lewis and his dedication to both ICT and ACI with a gathering in lieu of this retirement later this year. 🎉 🥳 And even more fun and educational times as a series of four technical sessions honouring ICT Honorary Fellow Doug Hooton on Monday was capped of with a fabulous reception in the evening where we met another ICT Honorary Fellow, Karen Scrivener.
