Our Mission
The American Society of Professional Estimators serves construction estimators by providing education, fellowship, and opportunity for professional development.
Education - In this constantly changing world, continuing our education is one way we can keep abreast of advances in estimating and construction techniques. The American Society of Professional Estimators (ASPE) encourages a wide range of educational activities that provide learning experiences for estimators at all experience levels.
Chapter Meetings - As professionals, we are constantly seeking to improve our knowledge of estimating and the construction industry. Chapter meetings include educational talks and mini-seminars on estimating and other construction related topics.
Seminars - Many chapters hold seminars that provide educational benefits for members and non-members alike. These range from two-hour single topic meetings to seminars two days long covering a variety of construction and estimating topics.
Annual Convention - Our annual convention provides two days of presentations by nationally known speakers in the construction industry. ASPE’s Technical Documents Committee prepares a book for each convention attendee that contains papers submitted by the speakers at these educational sessions.
Higher Education - ASPE members are involved in teaching, sponsoring, and providing input for estimating courses in certificate, bachelors degree, and masters degree programs at schools, colleges, and universities throughout the nation.
Scholarships - In addition, the Roadrunner Chapter and the National Society provides scholarship funds to encourage young people to seek an education in construction-related fields. Many other chapters also make scholarships available to students.
