Join us for a day filled with insights, inspiration, and invaluable networking opportunities at CEX. This event is designed exclusively for association professionals who work with chapters.
The Association Component Exchange (CEX) is a forum for association professionals who manage, nurture, and work with chapters to share successes, struggles, strategies, and innovations with your peers!
CEX is so much more than a one-day event. CEX is a mindset. It’s a conversation. It’s a community!
Collaborative peer-to-peer solution rounds, engaging learning and networking experiences, and access to chapter tools and resources.
Seize the opportunity to elevate your CRP journey, forge new connections, and equip yourself with valuable insights to drive success in 2026.
You’ll have time to work out problems, share ideas, and build relationships with others in your profession. Benefit from the collective wisdom, insight, and inspiration.
We’re keeping prices low so association professionals of all budgets can join us, connect, and gain insights. Invest in your growth without breaking the bank.

One of the most valuable things is the fact that people can submit what they are interested in, what they want to learn about so that by the time we get together you all do a great job of matching us with people who do things differently so we can learn from one another.”
It’s revolutionary. It’s you and all of your colleagues. They get it, they understand the pain points and they cheer you on and give you new ideas.”
These are my people and there is no other event that serves the chapter component relations community like this one does.”
CEX is the furthest thing from a conference. It’s talking to the experts, it’s learning something new. You are not being spoken at, it’s a true collaboration.”
Being a part of CEX is critically important for any membership professional honestly. It doesn’t matter if you are managing members, your managing chapters, state affiliates, special interest groups, sections.”
I wish all virtual presenters had your enthusiasm and ability to change pacing throughout their programs—and would use case studies!! Your program was excellent and the best virtual I’ve attended in pursuit of my CAE renewal.”
From CEX this year, I have great ideas for how we are going to develop into our chapters, how we are going to change them, and transform them. I had a great time, I love this! Coming back again. I am already making my reservation for next year.”
