What is ACCEC Georgia?

The American Council of Engineering Companies of Georgia (ACEC Georgia) was formed in 1956 (then known as the “American Consulting Engineers Council of Georgia”). The mission of the American Council of Engineering Companies of Georgia is to advance the business and profession of engineering in Georgia. ACEC Georgia accomplishes this mission by delivering on the three core pillars of our Value Proposition:

FIRM OPERATIONS – Providing programs and resources that highlight best business practices, leadership development, and technology. Providing a forum for the exchange of business and professional knowledge.
