Place: CHI Health Center 455 N. 10th Street, Omaha, NE 68102

The 2023 Snow Conference has it all, from expert-led snow and ice education sessions to an exhibit floor full of vendors excited to show you the latest winter maintenance solutions for your community. Make plans now to join your peers and take advantage of everything the Snow Conference has to offer.

Education Program

APWA’s goal for the Snow Education Program is to create an event where you can make meaningful connections and discover and produce game-changing insights and solutions.

APWA knows the challenges and opportunities facing public works are unprecedented. The speed of social and technological change places an enormous responsibility on you to proactively provide and maintain the infrastructure needed for your community’s growth and well-being. You need a Snow experience that will help you gain new perspectives, exchange ideas, and participate in important and thoughtprovoking discussions on the shape of things to come. We need you to arrive in Omaha prepared to ask the essential questions and share your views and ideas.

Start thinking now about the following:

. What challenges are you facing that a solution seems out of reach?

. What leadership qualities, skills, and resources are needed to lead and manage the modern Public Works Department?

. What innovations and solutions have your agency implemented that would help the whole profession provide better Public Works services?

. What are your blind spots? Are you open to fresh and broader perspectives?

. How should we be providing Public Works infrastructure and services that are resilient and sustainable?

Don’t stop here – what else is on your mind? We’re counting on you to show up eager to ask questions and to join your colleagues in imagining the future your communities deserve?

APWA is committed to helping you learn from each other, and the 2023 Snow Conference Education Program will include opportunities for you to make intentional connections.
