An annual event where participants work on the development and review of IICRC standards through committee meetings, presentations and networking. IICRC is the certification and standards body behind widely referenced restoration standards such as the S500 water damage standard.

This is a standards-development meeting rather than a claims conference. It is relevant to property claims mainly because IICRC standards are frequently cited in restoration scope and drying disputes.

The 2027 dates and venue are listed on PLRB's own members portal event page, which renders its detail via JavaScript.
