Educational Classes
One of the benefits of being a SICBA member is being able to attend or host educational seminars that will assist you in your endeavors to excel. Training with or without certification or designation sets a company apart from others as one who is determined to provide the best products and services possible to their customers. SICBA members also receive a discount on all BIAW education classes, seminars & workshops. Links to the BIAW courses can be found below.
Do you think you have a message that would be valuable as a class? Let us know! We would be thrilled to find a platform for you to share your knowledge with our members.
All SICBA hosted Education Classes are posted in the EVENTS CALENDAR on our website as well as on our FACEBOOK PAGE as an event.

Projects of the Year Awards
There is a standard packet available from SICBA that is very simple to use and makes the submissions uniform in appearance. There are many different categories from small to large commercial and residential for both counties. There is one overall Project of the Year award that will be presented to the one chosen from all the entries. All selections will be made by an unbiased group from another of the state associations – judging is not done in-house.
The only requirement is that the project must have been completed by December 31 of last year. It does NOT matter when it was started. The cost of submittal is $45 for each project. This helps offset SICBA’s costs of making sure the program is properly administered.
Call the SICBA office at 757-6916 or 1-888-497-4222 to request a packet.
ALL ENTRIES MUST BE IN THE SICBA OFFICE NOT LATER THAN MARCH 31st of this year IN ORDER TO HAVE TIME FOR MAIL SERVICE AND JUDGING BY ANOTHER ASSOCIATION.
SUBMISSIONS MUST BE IN THE FORMAT SPECIFIED BY THE COVER LETTER FOR STANDARDIZATION AND CONTINUITY.
