IBS Scholarship Applications Now Open
Since 2016, NAHB's IBS Scholarship Program has awarded 92 up-and-coming residential construction professionals with the opportunity to attend our industry's most comprehensive event, the NAHB International Builders' Show® (IBS). Scholarship recipients are given full access to explore the latest products, attend innovative education sessions and see demos of what's next; airfare and hotel accommodations are also included.
"No matter what role you play in the company, the scholarship is beneficial for you," stated 2020 IBS Scholarship recipient Kenzie Reynolds of Strohmaier Construction Inc. "I especially loved the fun demos and panel discussions that were conducted by some of the biggest voices in the industry.
"If you want to excel in your career, now is the time," she added. "Applying and attending IBS will get you ahead of your competitors, and you’ll come back to your role inspired and ready to grow as a company and person."
The scholarship application closes June 5 and is open exclusively to NAHB members in good standing who are 21-35 years old. Check out this Builders' Show post to learn more about this prestigious opportunity.
