The ACPA is dedicated to the education and promotion of concrete pump safety to the concrete pumping industry and for all those who come into contact with a concrete pump on a construction job. We're here to teach you how you, and others around you, can stay safer on the job.
Our instructors have over 50 years of combined concrete pumping experience.
The following Operator Safety Seminars have been scheduled for 2024:
The American Concrete Pumping Association (ACPA) has been making great strides in building a more educated, safer workforce, not only for pumpers but also for the contractors and others who work with and around concrete pumps. We are pleased to provide the following updates that promise to enhance the industry’s level of training and safety in 2024.
Amanda Mitchell has joined the ACPA management team as its new membership services coordinator. Amanda will be responsible for recruiting and onboarding new members and serve as committee coordinator for the ACPA Membership Committee. In addition, she will lend administrative support for the Bob Weatherton Scholarship Fund, ACPA Awards and ACPA’s popular “At the Hopper” roundtable discussions.
The American Concrete Pumping Association is proud to present the 2023 recipients of the Bob Weatherton Scholarship: Leighton Landreth, Shelby Willy and Dustin Cook. These students embody the leadership and spirit that is integral to the legacy of the late “Big Bob” Weatherton of The Concrete Pump Store in California. Bob served on the ACPA board of directors for more than 40 years and was one of the industry’s most avid champions.
Next year will be the ACPA’s 50th Anniversary! As a special tribute to pump operators, we’d like to recognize any actively working concrete pump operators who have 50 years (or more) service to our industry. Operators selected will be recognized at our Annual Membership Meeting held during World of Concrete, January 23rd in Las Vegas, Nevada.
