"After 30 years in the mega firm environment, I took the leap and opened my own construction practice. As a solo practitioner, the Maryland AGC has been instrumental in opening many doors to which I otherwise might not have access.”

“There are three (3) key benefits of becoming a Maryland AGC member: The opportunity to take part in company-building, as well as individual-building, educational and training series. The opportunity to be involved in conversations and other efforts that can help prepare our industries’ current/future “Young Leaders.” The opportunity to network with people from companies you would not normally get the opportunity to.”

“I’ve been participating in AGC events for the past decade and have found a tremendous amount of value to this organization. From a political standpoint, they keep their members well informed and lobby on behalf of the construction industry (especially union), and have been very impactful. From a networking standpoint, I’ve met so many great people at both entertaining and educational events, many of whom have evolved from helpful resources to life-long friendships. The education aspect of the AGC is one of the biggest reasons we’ve continued our membership. They work extremely hard to deliver relevant content and excellent environments for educational trainings ranging from OSHA 30 classes to CQM certifications, all of which are critical to development in our employees.”

“HPC values our membership in the Maryland AGC for several basic reasons. It is most important to belong to an organization that shares our professional view of our industry and helps project our voice via membership. The second very important aspect of membership is the professional development of our workforce. These training classes are very good refreshers for the seasoned construction professional and excellent for younger managers.”

"Maryland AGC is a leading organization in the construction industry, providing advocacy, education, and networking opportunities as part of the many resources for its members. One of the most significant benefits I have experienced is the direct access to the MDAGC Safety Work Group’s wealth of knowledge. The ability to have professional resources available via phone, email, or in person helps to ensure I am maintaining the highest level of safety within the industry. As the industry continues to change, having the ability to work with the Maryland AGC Advocacy Group allows my voice to be heard at the highest levels of government, which can have a dramatic impact on my career. Joining the Maryland AGC has led to great opportunities, and I would recommend getting involved to anyone in the construction industry."

'We are unique in our ability to provide Training, Lobbying, Safety Awareness, and Networking that reaches into the depths of our membership, and not just focus on one or two participants in each member company. I am proud to be a long-time active member of the Maryland AGC and look forward to fostering new and past relationships alike, to make the construction industry in Maryland stronger through the Maryland AGC.'
