The University of Florida won the third annual Roofing Industry Alliance for Progress (RIAP) student competition at the host site of the 2017 International Roofing Expo in Las Vegas. The winners were announced Thursday night at the NRCA Industry Awards Ceremony and Reception.
This year, the Alliance competition features six teams from universities across the United States that were tested on their roofing, project management, estimating, safety, and quality control knowledge, as well as presentation skills. It’s the largest group to compete in what has become a hallmark event that promotes careers in roofing industry management. The University of Florida team also won last year's event.
