Keeping up to date with the latest technology and techniques to boost productivity is more important than ever in today’s marketplace.

Attendees at the 2009 ICUEE – The Demo Expo will find more than 115 learning opportunities focused specifically on emerging trends in the construction and utility industry. That’s more than double the number at the last ICUEE, held in 2007.

“We know our attendees’ time away from the office and worksite is valuable. ICUEE education offers focused, in-depth knowledge-sharing opportunities with the industry’s leading experts. Participants can also share experiences and insights with peers from across the country and internationally," noted Show Director Melissa Magestro.

ICUEE - the International Construction and Utility Equipment Exposition will be held October 6-8, 2009 at the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville, Kentucky. The show is known for extensive hands-on working equipment demonstrations and will cover more than one million net square feet of exhibits of the latest equipment, technologies, products and services.

The 2009 ICUEE education includes new programs/sessions from Gas Technology Institute, Incident Prevention (iP), Industrial Utility Vehicle (IUV), National Rural Water Association (NRWA), Outside Plant (OSP) and Underground Construction Technology (UCT).

Classroom programs and field trips will be offered pre-show and during the show. The latest details are on the show website (www.icuee.com), and attendees can sign up online. A variety of ticket packages are available so attendees can select just the sessions they need, and advance registration also provides additional cost savings.

Industry professionals can access education geared to underground, above-ground and overhead applications, and sessions targeted to electric, sewer/water, phone/cable, gas, general construction, government and landscaping segments.

Sessions are grouped in tracks including equipment/fleet management, gas, renewable energy, safety, management/professional development, telecom, underground and water. CEU – Continuing Education Units will be available for many of the education modules.
