5 Ways to Maximize Your IBS 2025 Education Journey
The education sessions at the International Builders’ Show (IBS) always offer tons of fresh content from new perspectives. This year is no exception, with more than 120 sessions available to grow your knowledge — and your business.
Here are the top five ways you can learn from the best, and connect with industry leaders and peers at the 2025 IBS, taking place Feb. 25-27 in Las Vegas.
Industry learning begins before IBS with pre-show learning opportunities. Get a head start at NAHB Courses, the Custom Building & Remodeling Symposium and the Building Science Symposium, taking place Feb. 23-24, and spend more time on the show floor and in IBS Education sessions during the show.
Encore sessions of the most sought-after among the 120-plus IBS Education sessions will be offered to give attendees greater flexibility to arrange their schedule. These repeat sessions help to ensure more opportunities to participate in the sessions you want to attend.
Learning Labs are fast-paced sessions using unique presentation formats (think: lightning rounds and TED-talk style), interactive technology, audience participation and more. Check out all 11 sessions at BuildersShow.com.
