The Lyndon Area Business Association is proud to be a member of the Kentucky Chamber of Commerce Executives (KCCE). They are an extremely valuable resource for our organization. Attending the KCCE Boot Camp provided me with additional knowledge, new ideas and contacts around the region to more effectively serve my members.   It’s a partnership I would recommend to all Business Associations and Chambers.

Upon beginning my career as Executive Director there wasn’t much guidance from my predecessor, board, etc.  While reviewing some old files in my Chamber office I came across information regarding KCCE, I immediately made a phone call!  At that time Aaron Cox was the Executive Director and he informed me of “boot camp” that was being held within the next few weeks.  I am so very thankful that I took his advice and went to “boot camp”!  Everyone that attended that day was extremely helpful, they gave me guidance to get me well on my way to being the Executive Director I wanted to be!  Since that day, I have had the opportunity to attend conferences, I must say these are extremely helpful, lots of good people and ideas!  They are a never ending resource of information!

I am truly happy with the assistance I receive from KCCE, always willing to schedule a visit, conduct a training session or simply just listen to everyday problems we have as Executive Directors.   Thanks, KCCE!

As a relatively new chamber Executive Director, the Kentucky  Chamber of Commerce Executives association has been an invaluable asset for me as I learn the different aspects of running a Chamber of Commerce. I have relied on their direction many times in the last 2 years and have been very pleased with the different educational opportunities that have been offered. Additionally our board of directors has seen the benefit of KCCE through board training and development. Ali Crain is a well versed and highly qualified Executive Director and has been a pleasure to work with. I strongly recommend membership in this organization.

In 2007, as a new Chamber CEO at the Pike County Chamber in eastern Kentucky, I was looking for guidance and fresh ideas to bring to my Chamber.  I found that in the Kentucky Chamber of Commerce Executives.  I started my position that April, and I attended the KCCE Spring Conference that May.  I learned so much that I have not missed one conference since that point.  Not only did I learn from the very informational and useful seminars and workshops that were facilitated by KCCE, but I learned even more from the relationships I formed with other Chamber executives from across the state who are also members of KCCE.  I talk with at least one of my fellow KCCE members each week for idea sharing or to get advice.  I cannot begin to describe what KCCE has meant to me and to my Chamber and the many ideas we have implemented that I learned at a KCCE function.

There is no price you can put on being a member of KCCE.  What I have learned and the relationships I have formed is truly "priceless."
