The American Road & Transportation Builders Association Transportation Development Foundation (ARTBA-TDF) is accepting nominations for its 2020 Industry Leader Development Program (ILDP), the 25th annual class of the first-of-its-kind introduction to federal and state advocacy for transportation infrastructure market development and protection. It will be held May 12-14 in the Nation's Capital.
The ILDP and its associated Industry Leader Development Council (ILDC) boast of nearly 750 graduates from more than 200 industry firms, state contractor chapters and public agencies since its inception in 1995. The immersive, two-and-a-half day program provides an understanding of industry economics, how transportation work in the United States is funded and financed, how actions by the federal government impact the industry and how to become politically engaged to help shape transportation policy.
ILDP fellows also will visit with their members of Congress to discuss the need for congressional action on a permanent Highway Trust Fund solution and new infrastructure investment package.
The ILDP is held in conjunction with ARTBA's annual Federal Issues Program (FIP) and the Transportation Construction Coalition (TCC) Washington Fly-In.
Admission to the ILDP is a competitive process.
Admission to the ILDP is competitive. A letter of nomination and recommendation written by a principal of the firm, a senior executive within the governmental agency, or a senior-level faculty member at the university which employs the applicant must accompany each application.
Applications must be received at ARTBA's offices in Washington, D.C., by Wednesday, April 1.
