The Central region of APPA, CAPPA, is thrilled to host the 2019 annual conference in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Our theme is “Centered on Progress for Facilities Management” - based on Winnipeg’s central location within the North American continent. We all realize that facilities management is changing quickly, so we have to be “progressing” through the technologically driven environment we are now in.
Registration is now open! Please visit the 2019 Conference website and start planning to attend now.
The Professional Development Committee is currently working on getting high quality educational sessions to be available during the conference. The agenda will be available sometime in April 2019.
Also, please look at the optional activities that are available prior and during the conference. We are offering spouses and guests the opportunity to just attend the Event at the Manitoba Museum and the Awards Banquet, at a reduced cost.
Make your plans to attend now! And don’t forget to make sure you have a valid passport!
We look forward to seeing you in Winnipeg!
