Association Component Exchange
The Association Component Exchange (CEX) is the only conference designed exclusively for component relations professionals (CRPs). CEX is a one day forum for association professionals who manage, nurture, and work with chapters to share successes, struggles, strategies, and innovations with your peers!
“A space for CRPs has been missing for a long time…We need to band together to share our wisdom and best practices. A big part of doing that is coming to CEX!”
