EARNING AND MAINTAINING THE CAE IS A THREE-PART PROCESS. CANDIDATES MUST FIRST MEET ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS AND SUBMIT AN APPLICATION. THE NEXT STEP IS TO SIT FOR AND PASS THE CAE EXAM. ONCE CANDIDATES HAVE EARNED THE CREDENTIAL, THEY MUST MAINTAIN IT BY FULFILLING CERTIFICATION RENEWAL REQUIREMENTS EVERY THREE YEARS. ASAE'S CERTIFIED ASSOCIATION EXECUTIVE (CAE) PROGRAM HAS BEEN GRANTED ACCREDITATION BY THE NATIONAL COMMISSION FOR CERTIFYING AGENCIES (NCCA).
