What is this virtual event about?

In 2019, Billhighway and Mariner Management & Marketing came together to host the 3rd annual CEX: Association Component Exchange for component relations professionals (CRPs). During that event, we asked…What is the role of chapters? Are chapters still relevant? What changes are associations making to chapters? What support and services should we be giving chapters? How do we evaluate our chapters? How do we effectively share information with all chapters? We’re hosting this CEX Virtual After Party to turn the crowdsourced answers into actionable insights.

If you work with, manage or nurture chapters leaders or volunteers, then you need to join us for this FREE one-hour virtual event. We’ve assembled a panel of three CRP thought leaders with our dynamic host, Peggy Hoffman from Mariner Management. Join them as they chat about the successes, struggles, strategies, and innovations they’ve seen in chapters during 2019 and their vision for 2020. Help us continue the conversations started at CEX 2019!

This session is worth 1 CAE credit.

Join us at this live virtual co-creation event.

Participants from across the country will exchange ideas about opportunities to create change, discuss promising developments, and explore solutions through connection, learning and delving into alternative futures for chapters.

Our panelists will run the discussion. As the session video plays, a chat will run simultaneously, where attendees will be sharing their own experiences and giving you the option to flesh out your ideas in a meaningful and practical way. This is a co-creation event, which means we’ll be gathering insights from the ensuing discussion and turning them into an actionable resource for all attendees to take away with them. After the event, all participants will receive an eBook, capturing the collective knowledge shared during the event from both the speakers and attendees alike.

Speakers

A special thank you to our speakers, whose insights will drive our conversations.

Who We Are

About CEX: Association Component Exchange

So Billhighway and Mariner Management came together to build a community and connect component-based organizations and component relations professionals (CRPs). This manifested itself in CEX. CEX is a learning community where you get together with peers to share your successes, struggles, strategies, tactics, ideas, and insights.
