MEMBERSHIP SPOTLIGHT
Cameron Choquette | Saskatchewan Landlord Association
I joined CSAE as a young professional looking for opportunities to connect with and learn from experienced association executives. Associations Connect is a fantastic tool that enables collaboration across the country and helps small organizations like ours learn at an exponential rate! CSAE’s bookstore and education events are regular places where I go to learn, connect and engage with professionals. Resources remain relevant and affordable for organizations of all shapes and sizes. Thank you to CSAE for continuing to ensure associations across Canada are equipped to serve their members and constituents in meaningful and impactful ways. Connect with Cameron on LinkedIn:
