Welcome!

May 2011:

I am pleased to announce that both the general public and College Fellows can now use the About the Fellows page to find Fellows who are willing and available to act as expert witnesses or mediators along with other information about each Fellow. Click here for a recent article about the new expert witness/mediator website feature.

I want to remind Fellows that the deadline for nominating potential candidates to become ACEBC Fellows is the close of business on June 13, 2011. New Fellows will be inducted into the College at the November 5, 2011 Induction Dinner in Seattle, Washington so save the date.

Finally, the deadline for students submitting papers for the ACEBC Writing Competition with the opportunity to win either the Clarin M. Schwartz Memorial Award or the Sidney M. Perstaldt Memorial Award is June 1, 2011. Winners will receive their $1,500 awards at the Induction Dinner.

I look forward to seeing you at the Induction Dinner in Seattle.

American College of Employee Benefits Counsel, Inc.
