The 2nd Annual Federal Real Property
Week hosted by the Real Property Institute of Canada was
an unqualified success. The program of events consisted
of the Professional Development Day, the 21st Annual National
Workshop, the Gala Awards Dinner, and the ADM Panel Discussion.
The weeklong event provided opportunities to unite the
real
property community and offered progressive solutions and
approaches developed through discussion panels, educational
presentations, and recognition of projects that have contributed
to the real property community throughout the past year.
The
National Workshop theme of “Real Property in
Real Time” allowed the real property community to
take stock of what is working; assess how the people are
coping; and,
determine what the leading tools and approaches are to
help move the community forward. More than 250 delegates
enjoyed
close to 20 concurrent sessions and six keynote presentations.

RPIC was proud to offer
the first collaboration with the International Institute
for Sustainable Laboratories for
the Labs21 presentations. The mission of Labs21 is to find
and promote new approaches to designing, constructing,
operating and maintaining high performance, energy efficient
laboratories – a
more sustainable approach. Emerging building concepts and
technologies are providing opportunities to improve the
efficiency and environmental performance of typical laboratories.
A
new environmental consciousness is fuelling demands for
healthier indoor environments and increased financial savings.
The
Labs21 sessions will be followed up with a laboratory
focused RPIC Regional Workshop in Calgary scheduled for
April of 2010.
The Welcome Reception sponsored by
SNC Lavalin offered numerous
networking opportunities and excellent exposure for the
RPIC Trade Show exhibitors. More than 200 delegates gathered
for
the beer tasting hosted by Les Brasseurs du Temps.
RPIC highly values the opinions and
suggestions of its delegates. Please complete the relevant
