FEANI has only one National Member per country, represented either by the engineering body of the country, or by a "FEANI National Committee" representing that country's engineering associations.
Each National Member has a seat in the General Assembly which is the supreme decision-making body of FEANI. The General Assembly meets at least once a year in one of the member countries, i.e. Crete (Greece) in 1999, Hamburg (Germany) in 2000, Luxemburg in 2001, Cyprus in 2002, (Warsaw) Poland in 2003, Malta in 2004, Athens (Greece) in 2005, Prague (Czech Republic) in 2006, Valencia (Spain) in 2007. The next General Assembly will take place from 1 to 3 October 2008 in Bucharest (Romania). (The Netherlands in 2009)
The President, elected for a period of three years, chairs the meetings of the General Assembly.
The General Assembly
The Executive Board is composed of the President, the Vice-President, the Treasurer, six members and the Chairmen of the two FEANI Committees, the Committee for Continuing Professional Development (CPDC) and the European Monitoring Committee (EMC). The mandate of each term of office is three years, once renewable for the same position.
The Executive Board is the managing body of FEANI and speaks on its behalf. The Executive Board meets 5 times a year, once to prepare the annual meeting of the General Assembly.
The Executive Board implements FEANI's policy as defined by the General Assembly and is responsible for the day-to-day management of the association. The Board reports on the management and on the financial and general condition of the association to the General Assembly.
With the approval of the General Assembly, the Executive Board appoints and maintains the conditions necessary for the activity of Standing Committees and approves their procedural documents. The Executive Board also decides on the themes of conventions and seminars.
