Our association is led by a volunteer Board of Directors, which includes representatives from each province and territory. Directors are principals, management staff or senior employees of our member firms, and are selected from nominations put forward by our provincial and territorial Member Organizations. The Board sets the association’s mission and strategic priorities; is responsible for its finances; and evaluates its performance against its strategic priorities. The Directors are bound by a code of conduct and ethics.
In these tasks, the Board is supported by both a full-time paid staff, and by a number of volunteer groups and committees.

The Association of Consulting Engineering Companies – Canada (ACEC) is a not-for profit organization that has been the voice of Canadian consulting engineering companies since it was founded in 1925.
Consulting engineers offer professional engineering services and expertise to both public and private sector organizations.
The ACEC team is a small group of talented and engaged professionals that work tirelessly to support our efforts and our industry in the best way possible.
ACEC's ten provincial and two territorial member organizations represent every region of Canada. All member organizations are independent, not-for-profit associations that are incorporated in their own province or territory.
Does your firm work internationally? Members of ACEC are also members of FIDIC. Click here to learn more about FIDIC and to receive valuable insights and resources for the global consulting engineering sector, sign up for bulletins and other updates.
To conduct its business, our association relies on a number of committees, task forces, and other advisory bodies. These volunteer groups are indispensable to the work of the association.
ACEC respects and upholds an individual's right to privacy and to protection of his/her personal information. We gather information about your visit for internal statistical purposes regarding the use of our website.
