FREE CONSTRUCTION WEBINAR EVENTS FOR 2021 – HOSTED BY AHCC

JANUARY NEWS AND UPCOMING EVENTS – JUST FOR YOU!

Hello and a belated Happy New Year to AHCC members, supporters, and sponsors. Thanks for understanding our difficulties in not being fully operational during the pandemic. We were always here for our members to provide any support you needed on an individual basis. Webinars were off in running before March 2020 and will resume in February 2021. We need your support to continue.

We extend our condolences to anyone who lost a loved one to the pandemic. If financial hardship is at your feet, know that we will try to help you.

We did not ask for any new or renewed sponsorship or memberships in 2020 so as not to be a financial burden. But, we do need your support for 2021 to continue our mission to empower and advance Hispanic Commercial Contractors and our partners by providing the resources and access required to build profitable and productive relationships.

For January, I am briefly presenting on surety bonding in two free events not hosted by AHCC. Check out the other subject matter experts who will be presenting too.
