CESSE 2010 - The Council of Engineering and Scientific Society Executives (CESSE) CESSE 2010

The Council of Engineering and Scientific Society Executives (CESSE), incorporated in 1977, is an informal, not-for-profit international organization of chief executive officers and mid-to-senior level staff members of scientific and engineering societies. CESSE offers its members a forum for exchanging information about their experiences and a venue for addressing the problems, challenges, and opportunities they face in operating their societies. CESSE's greatest resource is its members' wisdom and experience. CESSE members are known -- some are even notorious -- for their willingness to share their knowledge with colleagues.

The objective of CESSE is to advance, in the public interest, the arts and sciences of the management of engineering and scientific societies. Please review the CESSE Strategic Plan.

Engineering and scientific societies have played a key role in the advancement of science and engineering and continued professional development of engineers and scientists. CESSE expects to continue to provide networking, educational, and training opportunities for the staffs of engineering and scientific societies to assure that these societies continue to provide them a key role in the future.

Mission

Share and examine successful approaches to managing engineering, scientific and technical societies while providing opportunities for networking and education of executives and senior staff of member societies.
