Chapter Operations Manual

The life-blood of the SBE is in its network of local chapters. There, members receive much of their benefit of membership through regular meeting programs, the development of professional relationships and peer recognition.

The importance of having good chapters with quality programs and leadership cannot be understated. SBE National provides guidance to local chapter leadership in a number of ways, including staff support from the National Office, guidance from the chapter's board liaison and through use of the SBE Chapter Operations Manual. Whether you are a fist-time chapter officer or seasoned volunteer, the Chapter Operations Manual can serve as a helpful guide to running a successful chapter.

The Chapter Operations Manual is available online at the SBE web site and includes suggested practices for meetings, handling of funds, record keeping and leadership structure and duties. It also includes a sample set of chapter by-laws that local chapters may use as a guide to create or modify their own, and other information you'll find helpful. 

Chapter Administration Forms are available to help make your reporting function easy.

Find them on this page.

Prospective members can also join using the online membership forms. Details about membership and the forms are available on this page.
