As we entered the month of February, our schedules would normally be preparing us to attend multiple industry trade shows. Unfortunately, the pandemic had caused all our in-person conferences to move to virtual, and the Geosynthetics Conference 2021 (Feb. 22-25, 2021) was no different. Additionally, our sister event, the International Erosion Control Association (IECA) Annual Conference and Expo, which was scheduled to co-locate with the Geosynthetics Conference 2021, was likewise moved to a virtual platform. However, there were benefits to the virtual meeting. Attendees had the opportunity to access a wide variety of educational offerings, with 40 professional development hours (PDHs) offered at a significant savings over a regular in-person event across both the Geosynthetics and IECA conferences, including technical presentations, panel discussions, roundtable discussions, special sessions and short courses. |
