As association professionals, you’re no stranger to juggling big goals with limited time, staff, and resources. Join us for an engaging discussion to share challenges and exchange ideas, share challenges and insights, plus:

You’ll walk away with insights on:

    • Today’s most pressing association challenges
    • Smarter approaches to membership, marketing, and communications
    • Stronger board relationships and governance practices
    • Practical ways associations are using AI right now


We'll also explore your needs in association management and developing a community of colleagues in Nevada. Along the way, we'll include ways Associations West benefits its members. If you are unable to attend, feel free to reach and e-mail President & CEO, Jim Anderson, CAE.


A bit of history...Associations West was formerly known as the California Society of Association Executives (CalSAE). We merged with the Oregon Society of Association Management in 2022, which was followed by another merger with the Washington Society for Association Excellence in 2026. We also discovered there was no "home" for Association Professionals in Nevada, so we are now offering membership and services to our neighbors!
