COAA-FL Spring 2025 Workshop

The Florida chapter returns to greater Orlando!

Friday, March 28, 2025
9:30 AM - 3:00 PM (EDT)

Event Details

NOTE:  We are nearing venue capacity, so the few remaining tickets will be sold only to Owners as of March 14.

The Florida chapter of COAA will gather in Lake Nona on March 28 for an event that allows Owners from all sectors to borrow and learn from their higher education and healthcare peers.  The program will include a case study of the in-progress UCF College of Nursing and a panel discussion featuring healthcare Owners discussing ideas their non-healthcare peers might consider to continuously improve the project delivery process and experience.

In support of the COAA Cares initiative, attendees will help support Nemours Children’s Health by assembling “World Art Day” kits for patients at the Nemours hospital in Lake Nona.  Kit components will be generously donated by Turner Construction.

Stick around after the workshop for a guided tour of the UCF College of Nursing project!
