Looking Ahead, Together

At our June Board meeting, we spent time discussing the future of professional learning at CSI. We believe in developing modern programs designed to reflect how people learn and grow today. Your responses to our first CSI-Connect “Question of the Month” helped guide those conversations. (Check out another topic on sustainability and add your voice.)

CSI’s Strength is Growing

CSI continues to make significant gains—financially, professionally, and across the industry. We’re building valuable relationships with manufacturers and engaging in conversations with other AECO associations. We’re proud that our standards and formats remain central to delivering successful projects. Honestly, it’s a much stronger position than where we were just a decade ago, and that’s something we can all celebrate.

What the Numbers Tell Us

Twice a year, the Board reviews key metrics to measure our impact. Here are a few highlights:

• 93% of members say they understand the roles of project team participants in delivering effective projects.

• 80% say they’re informed about product innovation and have the resources to do their jobs better.

• 5,780 CSI Learning Units completed in the past year. That’s 8% growth!

Board Updates

Please join me in welcoming two new CSI Board members:

And a big thank you to Andrea Zawodny, CSI, CCS®, CCCA®, whose thoughtful leadership has helped strengthen CSI and its community.
