Honoured Life Member - for Executive or Business Members

The CSAE Honoured Life Member Award is designed to recognize a member’s sustained commitment and outstanding contribution to CSAE for a minimum of 10 years on a national basis, and/or for contributions to a local chapter for 10 years based on a demonstrated and effective involvement at that level. The ten-year contribution may also be a combination of service at both levels. Recipients have achieved prominence through their sustained commitment to CSAE. The Board of Directors may grant this award to no more than two qualified individuals each year in recognition of outstanding contributions to the Society.
