This recognition is given to outstanding employers who supports professionals early in their careers and encourages their involvement in ASCE activities.\r\n\r\n\u201cTerracon\u2019s dedication to young civil engineers through their promotion of continuing education, support of Society involvement, and outreach into local community activities, aligns with ASCE\u2019s goals of developing people, advancing the profession of civil engineering, and serving the public good,\u201d said Leslie Payne, Director of Student and Younger Member Programs at ASCE.\r\n\r\nTerracon places a high priority on continuing education by covering up to 90% of the tuition expenses for approved coursework. They also cover the costs of registration and preparation of material for young professionals taking the P.E. exam. Additionally, an award of up to $1,000 can be earned for writing technical papers and articles for professional conference proceedings or journals. Terracon encourages employees to present a single topic paper at least twice per year.\r\n\r\nTerracon encourages young engineers to be involved in professional societies by covering national and local fees. Specifically, Terracon covers Society and Section dues for young engineers involved with ASCE. Travel is supported for Society events, such as the Central Region Multi Regional Leadership Conference, Emerging Leaders Alliance Workshop, and Section and Branch Leaders Workshop.\r\n\r\nThrough its young professional staff, Terracon has presented programs about engineering and science to local community groups and led a Geotechnical Engineering Tour in Kansas City for local university students.\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n\r\n<em>The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries.
