About ACEC/G and Its Members
Can ACEC/G
recommend using a particular member firm for a specific service?
While ACEC/G staff members cannot specifically recommend a member firm to
someone requesting a particular service, our Membership

engineering firms throughout Georgia.
These firms subscribe to the Code of Professional Conduct of the
American Council of Engineering Companies and meet the State requirements for
practicing consulting engineering.
How is ACEC/G
affiliated with the American Council of
Engineering Companies in Washington, D.C.?
ACEC/G is the fourth largest of 51 Member Organizations (MOs) that
comprise the American Council of Engineering Companies.
Nationally headquartered in Washington, D.C., ACEC does not consist
of a separate group of members but instead is made up of the members of
all 51 MOs. It is this
“strength in numbers” that allows ACEC to speak with a widely
respected, unified voice in matters concerning the engineering profession.

How does ACEC/G
membership differ from other professional engineering organizations?
There are many professional organizations designed to meet the needs of
engineering professionals. ACEC/G
is the only organization that protects and promotes the business interests
of consulting engineering firms.
While most organizations are individual memberships, ACEC/G
membership is designed to allow all employees within a member firm to
participate in those activities that will best benefit the firm.
Firms designate one voting representative, but all employees may
attend meetings and seminars.
Can non-members
participate in ACEC/G events?
One of the benefits of membership is the ability to interact and network
with decision makers from the top engineering firms in Georgia.
While non-members may attend these events, there is an additional
charge. Receiving advance
notices of these popular meetings is also a great member benefit.
