MEMBERSHIP SPOTLIGHT
Coralee A. Dolyniuk, CAE
CSAE member since 2016
I’m an association manager at Strauss Event & Association Management, based in Winnipeg, Manitoba. I started working with Strauss over 15 years ago as an event manager. I joined CSAE four years ago when I transitioned into my current role as executive director of two national associations and one provincial association. I’ve attended and benefitted from a bounty of educational events presented by CSAE. I am thrilled to have completed my CAE®, and proudly use the designation. The education provided by CSAE, especially the CAE® program, has provided me with invaluable knowledge that I am able to use with the variety of clients to whom I provide association executive services.
