What
does "an affiliate of the AIChE" mean?
For many years, the ECC operated as a Division of the American
Institute of Chemical Engineers. The AIChE handled our finances as
well as our meeting and conference planning.
In 2003, the ECC became a stand alone, non-profit
organization and established Affiliate status with the AIChE.
As an affiliate, the ECC maintains its link to
this prestigious organization, its networks and resources while
establishing independent status. As an Affiliate, the ECC, sets
its vision and objectives, manages its own finances, meetings,
conference venues, conference content and communications. In
essence, Affiliate status enables both organizations to focus
on their respective core objectives while still maintaining an
organizational link and alignment. Members of the ECC Executive
Board meet yearly with AIChE leadership. |
