CAE includes a number of Interest Groups that members can engage. These groups provide opportunities for CAE members to serve in leadership roles by Chairing/Co-Chairing a group, and they serve multiple functions within CAE, including:
- connecting and sustaining connections with folks doing similarly-focused work
- serving as one structure for facilitating the development of conference proposals for the AAA Annual Meeting
- serving as one structure to disseminate opportunities for scholarship, community engagement, etc. amongst CAE membership
- recruiting additional members to CAE
Check out the various Interest Groups below, and reach out to the Chair(s) to get connected! There is no membership fee or other requirement to join an Interest Group, and CAE members often join more than one.
