Its hard to believe I just celebrated my two-year anniversary as President of
ACEC Ohio. What a great year it has been, thank you for your support! This is
the first year of our long-range strategic plan and the focus has been on chapter
integration, with a task force working 11 months to create an implementation
plan. We feel strongly that the synergy between chapters and the state
organization will enhance the Council's ability to be the leading authority that
advocates, protects and promotes Engineering Business in Ohio.
