Preamble

The Canadian Society of Senior Engineers (CSSE), La Société canadienne des ingénieurs séniors (SCIS), formerly the Life Members Organization (LMO) (1967-2002), a committee of the Council of the Engineering Institute of Canada (EIC), was approved as a Member Society of EIC on September 22, 2002, as requested by Leonard A. Bateman, Chairman of the LMO. On a motion by Guy Gosselin, seconded by Mohamed El-Hawary, the resolution “That the LMO’s application for membership as a Member Society be accepted”, was approved by resolution of the Council, chaired by EIC President Kenneth W. Putt. The Canadian Society of Senior Engineers (CSSE), La Société canadienne des ingénieurs séniors (SCIS) is registered as a Canadian Charitable Organization.

In May 14, 2011, the French name and subtitle was changed to La Société canadienne des ingénieurs séniors (SCIS) from La Société canadienne des ingénieurs ainés (SCIA) as shown above, to make the French language more appropriate to Members senior in experience and responsibility rather than merely senior in age.

In October 15, 2014 the English name was changed to The Canadian Society of Senior Engineers, to make the English part of the name conform to the French name La Société canadienne des ingénieurs séniors (SCIS).
