Shared Interest Groups (SIGs)

Shared Interest Groups (SIGs) are a great way to learn from fellow association executives about the issues keeping you up at night. These member-led groups are organized around areas of interest and offer a forum for you to discuss what matters most to you. And SIG attendance qualifies for CAE hours!
