The Executive Board

CDEFI’s Executive Board, elected for two years, comprises the president and vice-presidents.

The Executive Board meets every month, prior to the Standing Committee’s meeting. It coordinates the implementation of CDEFI's strategic orientations, follows the Conference's activities and news and takes the appropriate decisions. The Executive Board identifies the topics to be put on the next Standing Committee’s and General Meetings’s agendas. It defines the work programme of the CDEFI permanent staff.

The Standing Committee

CDEFI is administered by a Board of Directors called “Standing Committee”. It comprises 21 members:

  • 1 president,
  • vice-presidents,
  • 12 members elected by the General Meeting,
  • 4 co-opted members.
According to the Conference statuses, the elected members of the Standing Committee must be able to reflect the interests of all the French Schools of Engineering: state schools supervised by the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, state schools supervised by the other “technical” ministries, private schools, etc.

Elected and co-opted members are part of the Standing Committee for two years and their mandate can be renewed twice.

The Standing Committee members express the voice of the General Meeting members:
 
  • they identify the major work orientations of the Conference,
  • they follow the implementation of tasks and decisions,
  • they express public and political opinions on legal documents related to Higher Education and Research reforms in France, Europe and worldwide.
