The mission of the wisconsin society of association executives is to serve as a forum where the association community thrives and grows.

The wisconsin society of association executive (wsae) provides networking opportunities for the state's top executive directors and is a consistent resource for providing continuing education as it relates to the new trends and standards in the association industry. 2017 was a great year for wsae. We held seven educational programs, including a two-day summit, our annual spring outing and awards celebration, and additional educational programs on leadership and member engagement. Additionally, we held ten ceo roundtable sessions. We also partnered with other sae groups on a webinar series. Wsae continues to have national exposure in regards to innovation, having many participants from outside of wisconsin. the wisconsin society of association executives publishes a bi-monthly newsletter offering articles on pertinent and timely issues affecting the assocation industry.
