“CSAE has been a tremendous resource, offering professional development, information, and networking opportunities that were valuable in my lengthy career as an association professional. I took especially great pride in obtaining the CAE designation, which played an important role in my career advancement.”

Françoise Cloutier (Retired)

“Au cours de la deuxième année de ma présidence en 2000-2001, notre section a connu une augmentation significative de sa participation – presque le double. Le deuxième moment inoubliable a été la réception du Prix leadership SCDA-Québec en 2007.”

Cheryl Farrow
CEO, Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists

“Completing my CAE in 2012, including serving as the cohort’s valedictorian. Holding my CAE has made a significant difference in my career trajectory and has provided just as much value as my MBA.  I am honoured that things have come full circle and I now serve as the instructor for ‘Optimize Governance,’ the first module in the restructured CAE program that launched this spring.”

“No way to pick one valuable moment - rather, it's the accumulation of dozens of friendships and mentors and peers over the years!”

“CSAE has always been my go-to for quality educational programs and association management resources. In particular, the CEO Symposium gave our Board Chair and myself the necessary tools to take our association to the next level!”

“There have been so many valuable moments with CSAE such as volunteering for various committees, representing Manitoba at the Leaders’ Forum and networking at CSAE events.  One of my favorite moments would be Randy Bachman’s performance to close out the CSAE Conference in Winnipeg.
