AFFILIATIES > INTRODUCTION

Introduction

Engineering and Technical Society Directory
There are a variety of engineering and technical societies in the Delaware Valley. For many years, the Engineers' Club has maintained a directory of these affiliated societies. To help us keep this directory up-to-date, societies can fill out the Engineering and Technical Society Contact Update Form.

Affiliate Society Leadership Summits
Over the past two years, the Affiliate Affairs Committee has been working to develop new means of helping all of the engineering societies work together on those things that we have in common. Our goals are:

• Develop opportunities for the Club to act as a conduit for the coalescence of the greater Philadelphia engineering community.
• Cultivate partnerships with other technical and professional societies around common areas of interest.
• Advance services offered by the Club that will assist other technical and professional societies in the greater Philadelphia area.

The Club has hosted four Affiliate Society Summits with leaders from these societies, and will continue to do so on a semi-annual basis. Click for a copy of the meeting report.

Affiliate Club Membership
The Club provides two types of memberships to affiliated societies.

• Basic Membership (free) includes the benefits currently experienced by the affiliated societies, such as having events posted on the Calendar of Events, listing of society scholarships, and included in the list of societies, all of which are on the Club?s website.
• Premium Membership ($250 per year) will provide the society with free mail drop service, two individual memberships to be named by that society or organization, and access to the Club?s Fee for Services Program.

The Fee for Services program offers administrative services which can be tailored to the needs of the individual society, such as:

• Message Center Service, with the society?s own phone number
• Meeting Coordination
• Financial Recordkeeping
• Mailings
• Public Relations
• Vendor Services

The fees for each service will be tailored to the size and anticipated usage of the service. This program will be revised and updated as additional services become available. For information on any of these services, or to suggest additional services, contact Susan Best or call 215-985-5701.
