Northern Virginia Association Exchange

A VSAE Learning and Leadership Series
April 16 - Whiteford Law, Falls Church, VA
Registration is now closed. Contact VSAE with any questions.

VSAE is launching a new event series designed to better connect association professionals working in Northern Virginia and the broader DMV region.

The Northern Virginia Association Exchange brings together association leaders and professionals for practical education, peer discussion, and meaningful networking — all in a convenient Northern Virginia location. Each program features expert-led sessions, facilitated conversation, and dedicated time to build relationships with colleagues who understand the realities of association work.

While these programs are hosted in Northern Virginia, they are part of VSAE’s statewide professional development offerings. Association professional members from across Virginia are welcome and encouraged to attend, and each session offers opportunities to learn from peers representing a wide range of organizations.

Join us for the full 2026 series, featuring three curated programs offering 6 CAE hours (2 per session), focused on leadership, revenue strategy, and member engagement.

Who Should Attend: Association CEOs, senior leaders, and emerging leaders interested in executive leadership, AI strategy, and board effectiveness.

CAE Domain 2: Executive Leadership and CAE Domain 1: Governance
