Regional Directors

Regional Directors are volunteer leaders who support the health and growth of AACE sections within a specific geographic area. They serve as the key connection between local sections and AACE headquarters - helping to foster community, promote professional development, and expand awareness of AACE’s technical resources. Regional Directors collaborate closely with section leaders, provide guidance and mentorship, encourage local engagement, and help identify new opportunities for growth. Regional Directors serve on the Membership Advisory Committee (MAC).
