Why would I join, I’m retired or with another firm?2023-09-14T02:45:00+00:00

There are many benefits to joining the CHAA. Many of these are outlined in the attached BENEFITS OF JOINING THE CH2M HILL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION.

But I work for another firm, isn’t this a conflict?2023-09-14T02:46:47+00:00

There is no business nor financial connection between Jacobs and CHAA. Therefore, most would judge that there is no conflict.

I now work for Jacobs, why would I need to join?2023-09-14T02:47:35+00:00

Jacobs is justifiably proud of its strong business and cultural legacy. But CH2M Hill is just as proud of it’s legacy. If you ever worked for CH2M Hill join us as we PAY FORWARD that history and it’s unique legacy in the engineering space.

Our alumni are aging and CH2M HILL no longer exists, so what is the future of the CHAA?2023-09-14T02:48:36+00:00

That is a question the CHAA Board has also asked and in response formed a special task force in January 2023 to address it. The task force has a two-year phased study plan with the objectives of enhancing and sustaining the CHAA membership and alumni community (reunions/local groups) in the near-term; and emphasis of outreach (alumni Pay-it-Forward activities) and sustaining lasting CH2M HILL legacy through other organizations and entities in the long term. You will hear more about this soon via the CHAA website, newsletters and other communications. Join us in that quest.

But I’ve found that, in retirement, I have other interests and commitments and don’t think I’ll have time for something else.2023-09-14T02:50:14+00:00

We understand. But, there is no commitment; you may choose to engage as you wish, even as a passive observer. And the membership cost is rather modest. Cost is $20 per year. Or you may choose “The Senior Moment” plan, 5 years for $100 so we don’t have to remind you every year.

How can I be more supportive of the CHAA besides paying dues? 2023-12-29T18:01:15+00:00
