QuoteI am at a point in my professional career where I cannot afford to not be a member of FSAE.  Being an FSAE member allows me to connect with other association professionals who are experiencing the same challenges as I am.  It also provides me with endless educational opportunities to learn and grow.  I would encourage any association professional to join FSAE, take advantage of all the education offered and get involved in committees – the return on investment is tenfold what you put into it." 
Rachel Luoma, CAE, Chief Staff Executive, VP, Partners in Association Management

Our members include anyone who works for an association such as CEOs, management, meeting planners, membership staff, marketing staff, the receptionist and anyone in between. Industry suppliers are also members of FSAE, including hoteliers, CVB staff, destination representatives, technology providers and service providers. Click here to learn more about our membership categories.

QuoteFSAE has not only added a value to my professional career but it has helped shaped me as a person. Through education, networking, and professional development, my experience with association management as a young professional has expanded widely and rapidly. FSAE has challenged me to learn more about different aspects of association management, and I’ve experienced huge growth that can only be attributed back to my mentors, my colleagues, my friends, and professional organizations like FSAE."
