A current conversation on the CSI Connect community page\u2014where people can easily interact with each other in real time on a wide variety of industry-related topics\u2014asked members to give their local CSI chapter a shout-out, and share what makes their local chapter unique.<\/p>\n

Brad Schwab, CSI, CDT, said, \u201cI am proud of our Chicago Chapter for our involvement in our community. We have great technical programs and social events but we are involved in our Chicago construction community beyond just our members. We have affiliate relationships with other organizations like the Chicago Roofing Contractors Association, IIBEC Chicago, and BEC Chicago. We also give back to our community through our Student Scholarship, Future Cities, and Rebuilding Together initiatives. The chapter has many different options for people to get involved, and they all offer easy ways to meet people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
