Who Does What?
The host provides content, expertise, and contact information for the project team members and vendors. The host will also provide learning objectives for CEUs.
NESEA staff handle the event logistics. We take care of promotion, registration, customer service for registrants, sponsor recruitment, accreditation, and we manage all of the technical aspects of the tour.
Pro Tour Format
Pro Tours are half-day events that bring together multiple members of a project team to showcase their high performance building project. Our format allows for deep dives on specific aspects of the project and fosters connection between participants and speakers.
Pro Tours will always be held on Friday afternoons, 12:30-5:00pm.
