The IBS 2021 Scholarship Program: Experience the most comprehensive event in residential construction for FREE
These days, investing time and money in career development is as challenging as ever. With so much on everyone’s plates, even attending the premier annual light construction show in the entire world— The NAHB International Builders’ Show® (IBS)— might not be high up on your list.
That’s why applying to the IBS Scholarship Program today is a no-brainer. Being recognized as a recipient is a huge honor, a pat on the back and a spotlight on you and your career. Attending IBS is your chance to connect with fellow recipients, industry pros like designers, builders, remodelers and architects, and an incredible opportunity to take advantage of hundreds of cutting-edge education sessions, new products and demos, all while learning new trends and tech… but it’s also free.
Yes, it’s really a scholarship.

“Hands down I was blown away by the inclusivity of it. What I mean by that is when you hear about winning an award or winning something like that, most of the time in other industries it’s like ‘we’ll get you there and get you set up but you still need to get all of this X,Y and Z.’
I felt completely taken care of the entire time I was there — from the airfare to the hotel to the events, to the show itself.
I have about a 14-page book that I took from the show that we are sorting through and immediately applying to the business.” – Andrew Brindley, 2020 scholarship recipient
