SUMMARY:C3M Submittal Genie: New Software Demo for Contractors: Free Webinar
DESCRIPTION:C3M Submittal Genie is a GC-focused software tool designed to significantly reduce the time and effort required to review submittals. \nFor GCs using Procore\, Submittal Genie can automatically generate a submittal log directly from project drawings and/or specifications\, formatted for seamless import into Procore. If a project does not have formal specifications\, the platform can generate specs that align with the submittal log\, allowing for a quick and efficient Procore import. \nThis streamlined process helps save both time and money throughout the submittal review process. \nThere is no subscription required—Submittal Genie operates on a credit-based model\, allowing you to use the service only when needed and align usage with project schedules. \nDuring the demo\, you will see a full walkthrough of Submittal Genie\, including how to upload and scan documents\, save a project\, generate specifications and submittal logs when needed\, and begin reviewing submittals efficiently. \nVisit our website to learn more: https://c3msubmittalgenie.com/

SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Optimize Your Construction Management Systems
DESCRIPTION:You’ve invested in Construction Management software—and maybe training too—but you’re still not seeing the performance or savings you expected. When problems come up\, the answer is always the same: buy another module or upgrade to the latest version. That just adds complexity\, costs\, and disconnected systems. \nThe real issue isn’t more software. It’s making the tools you already own work the way you do. \nZenTek Consultants\, in partnership with Associated Builders & Contractors of PA\, invites you to a live\, open symposium focused on optimizing the Construction Management systems you already use. We’ll share our top five tips for getting more value out of platforms like Procore\, ACC\, and Bluebeam—and answer your real-world questions in a live\, interactive setting. \nSubmit questions ahead of time or ask them live. ZenTek’s Technology Specialists will cover: \n\nManaging and reassigning system administrators\nAutomating project reporting\nCreating custom data fields\nImproving collaboration within CM systems\nTraining strategies for GCs vs. subcontractors\n\nThis is a practical\, no-sales-pitch session built for construction professionals who want clarity\, efficiency\, and results.

SUMMARY:Tools for Change: Substance Use Awareness\, Stigma Reduction and Recovery Supports in the Trades
DESCRIPTION:Substance use is already on construction jobsites—often unseen\, often unspoken—and its impact reaches far beyond the individual. It shows up in safety incidents\, strained communication\, lost productivity\, turnover\, and weakened trust across crews. In an industry defined by physical demands\, tight deadlines\, long hours\, and high-risk work\, the effects are too significant to ignore. \nThis training confronts the realities of Substance Use Disorder (SUD) in the Trades and breaks down how it develops\, including the roles of tolerance and withdrawal in shaping behavior\, performance\, and decision-making on the job. Participants will examine how jobsite and company culture can either reinforce risk or become a powerful force for prevention\, stability\, and support. \nThe session also addresses stigma directly—how it shows up in conversations\, supervision\, HR processes\, and field leadership—and the real consequences it has when people hesitate to speak up\, step in\, or seek help. Left unaddressed\, stigma delays action and increases risk for everyone on the jobsite. \nParticipants will learn practical\, actionable strategies to reduce stigma across all levels of a construction organization and strengthen a culture where safety and support work together. The training also introduces peer recovery workers\, their role in supporting individuals in recovery\, and why peer-based support is especially effective in the Trades. \nThis session equips construction teams with shared language and real-world tools to recognize issues earlier\, respond more effectively\, and build safer\, more resilient workplaces. \nFREE VIRTUAL EVENT: Register today\, a link to join the webinar will be emailed to you the day before the event. \n\nPresenter:\n \nPatricia “Patti” Baranowski\, MA\, CADC\, Program DirectorPRO-A WORKS \nMs. Baranowski has over 30 years working in the areas of prevention\, education\, support\, advocacy\, clinical and counseling\, in the field of Substance Use Disorders.
