Spring is in the air! Okay, that’s probably a stretch, but our spring conference is top-of-mind!

If you haven’t attended in previous years, we invite you with open arms to join us at CGA’s Annual Conference & Expo, April 14-18, 2024, in Colorado Springs, Colo.

The Damage Prevention Institute team shares our top five opportunities for DPI participants at the CGA Conference and Expo to learn, grow and create better safety outcomes:

1. DPI Metrics Committee Meeting - As we like to say, “The DPI belongs to CGA members. It is ours to build together.” Join the conversation on the future of metrics and shared accountability on Monday, April 15 at 8:30 a.m.*
2. Networking galore - More than1,200 committed damage prevention stakeholders all in one place, each bringing unique experiences that can be shared and challenges that can be solved together. Special events and the dynamic expo floor are designed with networking in mind.
3. DPI peer review pilot program insights shared  - DPI Accreditation includes the completion of a peer review. We have recently piloted the program and will begin scaling up peer reviews later this year. Join us for a summary of the pilot experience on Wednesday, April 17 at 11:15 a.m.*
4. Sessions on driving behavior change - We have heard from so many of you that your employees know what best practices are needed to prevent damages, but people still sometimes make wrong decisions and cause damage. Dive deep into understanding why and how to impact behaviors. The full education schedule is loaded with great damage-prevention content.
5. A big announcement from CGA President Sarah Magruder Lyle - Hear about how damage prevention changemakers are going to take damage prevention to the next level and positively impact the industry. You’ll want to be there to be the first to hear the news and join the effort.

And as a bonus, your CGA DPI team is in full force at the conference. We’re excited to meet many of you in person and share an impactful week of education and needle-pushing dialogues.

Pro tip: Pack your denim and diamonds for the Night of Networking!
