AHR Expo to Expand Show’s Education Program
WESTPORT, Conn. — The 2018 AHR Expo has expanded its seminar program, making it the largest-ever education and training agenda in the show’s history.

The 2018 AHR Expo will be held Jan. 22-24 at McCormick Place in Chicago. To register, visit www.ahrexpo.com.
“Contractors, engineers, and other show attendees always give us high marks for the value our education program delivers, and this year we have surpassed ourselves,” said Clay Stevens, president of International Exposition Co. “The show has become the place where industry professionals can earn continuing education units (CEUs), complete certification exams, and learn about the latest developments and best practices in free and paid seminars.”
More than 70 of the free, one- and two-hour sessions will be presented by experts from prominent industry-leading organizations. Sessions have been designed to allow for easy integration of valuable education time into attendees’ overall show agendas.

All courses are approved for CEUs toward maintaining professional engineer licensures. Advance registration and fee payment is required and can be completed by visiting ASHRAE’s registration website.
Each full-day course will earn attendees six professional development hours (PDHs)/learning units (LUs) or 0.6 CEUs, and half-day courses earn attendees three PDHs.
