Please join us for the 2024 Annual AIACC Code Academy. We are excited to have our presentation once again being led by ICC - The International Code Council. This year's presentation on the 2015 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) will provide participants the knowledge to increase the efficient use of energy in the construction of new buildings and alterations to existing buildings.

There will also be a early morning and lunch presentation along with breaks throughout the day that will provide you the time to meet each of the 2024 Code Academy Sponsors and check out their products. Early Morning and Lunch and Learn presenters TBA. There will also be "Door Prizes" throughout the day donated by our 2024 Booth Sponsors.

You will earn a total of 8 LU/HSW credits for the day.

We will start early with check-in available at 7:15, along with breakfast and the early morning CEU presentation beginning at 7:30AM followed by the first session from ICC presenter, Bill Hudson at 8:30AM.
