Is It Your Year to Become a CAE?  

ASAE Application Deadline -September 10, 2010 for the December 3rd, 2010 Exam

CAE. Those three letters after your name can represent professional recognition and career advancement. CAE means Certified Association Executive, the professional designation for the association management profession ... and the Forum can help you achieve this individual certification. The Association Forum was the first local society to provide study groups for CAE candidates back in the mid-'70s.

The Forum strongly encourages you to enroll in the society's study group. The sooner you get the application into ASAE, the sooner you will know whether you are eligible to sit for the exam, and to participate in the study group. Here are the details:

Who: The study group is intended for association professionals who have met the basic CAE certification requirements.

What: The study group is a small, interactive group of association professionals that meets for a structured case study series based on the ten domain areas of identified competencies, open discussion and a review of potential exam questions and materials.

Content: Weekly meetings will be facilitated by existing CAEs and will focus on the nine identified domains of association management expertise. With this format, every exam subject will be covered thoroughly. It is strongly advised that all students read the recommended reading materials BEFORE the scheduled case study. The schedule will be e-mailed to all enrollees.

Ordering Books:

You can order the books through ASAE at www.asaenet.org/cae .
