The rapid growth of Design-Build, and the increasing adoption of Progressive Design-Build, has elevated the importance of the Owner Advisor (OA). But what knowledge, skills and competencies define an effective OA, and how can the industry better support and recognize this critical role?

This webinar will offer an early preview of DBIA's ongoing industry assessment conducted by FMI exploring the evolving Owner Advisor role and the potential for a Design-Build Done Right Owner Advisor® Specialty Credential. Hear key themes emerging from industry research, learn how this work could help Owners identify qualified advisors and strengthen project outcomes, and get a sneak peek at the expanded conversation that will take place at DBIA's 2026 Conference & Expo this November in Cleveland, Ohio.

Attendees can earn 1.0 Continuing Education Hour (CEH). Registration is FREE for DBIA members and only $25 for non-members.
