Bushfire Building Community Day welcomes ABC Radio 702
Earlybird Conference registration closes on Monday, 23 July 2018!
Australia’s only event bringing together professionals in all disciplines relating to building in bushfire-prone areas is on again this September! The 2018 Australian Bushfire Building Conference with a full line-up of expert speakers, interactive panel discussions and a range of industry-led workshops (that also earn you CPD points) is not to be missed.
Early Bird tickets are available at just $180 + GST, but be quick as this special pricing is valid only until Monday July 23 2018
This year there are big changes; the event will be held across two venues with the Fairmont Resort in Leura hosting the Industry Conference and the Blue Mountains Community Hub in Springwood hosting the free public Forum & Expo.
Conference Program Highlights:
Analysis of the 2017 California fires that destroyed nearly 10,000 structures
Analysis of the 2018 Tathra bushfire and a detailed look at a BAL 29 home that survived it
Info sessions on regulatory updates and breakout sessions with CPD points
On Saturday, the Forum & Expo will see 1000+ residents of the Blue Mountains and nearby areas attending to learn more about protecting their families and properties from bushfires.
Exhibiting at the Industry Conference on Friday Sep 7 and at the Community Marketplace on Saturday, 8 September is the perfect opportunity to get in front of a wide range of industry practitioners & the community eager to learn about new products and services that could make living in bushfire prone areas safer and sustainable.
