The Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) is a national association of construction professionals, including specifiers, architects, engineers, contractors, facility managers, product representatives, manufacturers, owners and others who are experts in building construction and the materials used therein.
The Northeast Region CSI is comprised of the members of the 14 local chapters in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and New Jersey.
If you’d like to advance your career, network with people from around the region, grow your leadership skills, gain managerial experience working with volunteers, and share your talent with fellow CSI members – WE NEED YOU. Region Committees are a forum for sharing best practices from throughout the region and where appropriate, to facilitate communications with corresponding Institute Committees.
Most committees are comprised of a Region Chairman plus members from the chapter chairs from around the Northeast. These include Awards, Certification, Education/Academic Program, Membership, Technical, and Website/Publications. The Finance and Planning Committees are special purpose Region Committees where the members of the Committee are appointed by the Region President. The Conference/Events Committee is primarily staffed by the upcoming host chapter. The Nominating Committee is chaired by the Region Secretary and one member is appointed by each Chapter.
