Professional Women in Building
The Professional Women in Building Council (PWB) is the voice of women in the building industry - dedicated to promoting industry professionalism and supporting members at the local, state and national levels.
The Professional Women in Building of the Triangle is a joint council with the HBA of Raleigh-Wake County. We meet monthly to network, grow professionally, and serve our local community. We are connected to the North Carolina Women in Building Council and the National Women in Building Council, which allows us many opportunities to connect with and learn from women in the industry across the country. We take pride in bringing valuable education to our local council and in supporting our community through our partnership with Habitat for Humanity and the HBADOC Scholarship Program.
If you are a woman in the local building industry, we would love to connect with you! Our membership is diverse, including builders, designers, real estate brokers, lenders, developers and more. There is a place for you with us.
According to recent national studies, company earnings of PWB members are 22% higher than those who are not members. PWB members agree they are more successful business professionals because of the support they receive from peer members,. You'll find a snapshot of the benefits and resources members receive here.
