The 2026 OCA Construction Symposium & Trade Show hosted by the Ottawa Construction Association, brings together industry professionals involved in the construction chain (including private and public sector construction companies, local architects and engineers, general contractors, infrastructure builders, trade contractors, and suppliers). Students can gain insight into upcoming construction trends, technology and innovation in the construction industry, and information on potential job opportunities, while having an opportunity to network with industry professionals. Students may arrive and attend at any time throughout the day.
The symposium is designed to bring the industry together to learn, connect, and reflect on the privilege of working in a sector that literally builds our city. Construction is challenging work, but it is also deeply rewarding, offering careers that leave a lasting legacy.
