Benefits of membership

Who We Are:
NAESA International is an organization open to individuals from all segments of the elevator industry who are interested in improving the manufacturing, performance, inspection and safety of elevators, escalators and other conveyances.
NAESA International is accredited by the ASME to certify elevator inspectors and  has an open certification program available to qualified individuals wishing to obtain a credential that attests to their expertise in the elevator industry. The year 2007 marked NAESA’s 20th year as an ASME-accredited organization. NAESA International is represented on numerous ASME committees and therefore has the most current information available to members.
High Ethical Standards:
NAESA International has established a code of high ethical standards and requires that all members conduct themselves accordingly.
   
Educational Opportunities: 
Although originally organized to provide a forum for inspectors to meet, confer and learn, NAESA International has expanded to provide the same services for all disciplines within the trade. Educational programs, workshops and seminars are presented at a level that all can relate to and understand. Through these educational opportunities, NAESA International provides a forum where peers meet, discuss topics and ask questions; individuals with the expertise to do so provide the answers and lead the discussions relating to those questions. Members may also network with others online at naesai.org.
 
Workshop Opportunities: 
To allow all members to participate in NAESA’s workshops, workshops are held in each region in the Spring and Fall. Workshops are now also held in and centrally located for ease of access to members. In addition, NAESA International holds an Annual Workshop each year with locations alternating among Eastern, Central, Western and Canadian Regions. The educational portions of these workshops provide excellent opportunities to remain current with the latest developments in elevator technology and codes. These workshops allow members to network with peers and other experts in the elevator industry - inspectors, consultants, contractors and manufacturers – all meeting and intermingling, one assisting the other. 
 
Lower Fees: 
Members of NAESA International pay substantially lower fees for their annual recertification than individuals who are not members. Members also realize a savings on registration fees for the Regional as well as National Workshops, and all code seminars and update classes. 
 
Monthly Newsletter: 
NAESA International members receive a monthly newsletter, the Progress, informing them of the newest developments in the elevator industry; listings of all currently-scheduled seminars, updated classes and workshops; a message from the Executive Director with news from the main office; articles addressing code questions and issues; news from around the globe and advertising opportunities. This newsletter is mailed to all members and is also available on our website. Members also have the opportunity to advertise employment positions, etc., in the Progress, once each year, free of charge. 
 
Up-To-Date Contact List of Members: 
NAESA International provides members the opportunity to network with others of similar interests and concerns. To facilitate this, a complete list of names and phone numbers of all members is available to NAESA International members on our website.  
 
Historic Code Books: 
Information from codes and standards dating back to 1921 is available upon request from the home office. This information is very helpful to individuals who may encounter older equipment in their inspection travels. Members should contact the Executive Director for assistance with information from older codes and standards.
