Known for its comprehensive speaking and education programs, Coverings seeks authorities in the categories of architecture and interior design, fabrication and installation, green building, retail sales and distribution, to submit proposals for one or more topics. Proposals from individuals as well as teams are accepted, and should be submitted at coverings.com/CFP. The deadline for submissions is Sept. 5. 

All sessions are free to registered Coverings attendees and exhibitors. Coverings is a registered provider of AIA and NKBA continuing education and applies for CEUs through IDCEC.
