6. 6 Strategy Statement – Global Impact Short Version ASME will deliver locally relevant engineering resources to advance public safety and quality of life throughout the world. Statement ASME will deliver locally relevant engineering resources for business, government, academia and practicing engineers to positively impact the quality of life throughout the world. We will achieve this by providing value and enhancing public safety through standards, certification, technical information, networking, alliances, and advocacy.

7. 7 Strategy Statement – Engineering Workforce Development Short Version ASME will foster a broader, competent, vibrant and more diverse engineering workforce with improved retention in both the profession and ASME over all career stages. Statement ASME will foster a broader, competent, vibrant and more diverse engineering workforce with improved retention in both the profession and ASME over all career stages. ASME will expand the capacity and effectiveness of the engineering workforce, promote the public good and increase public awareness of the value of the engineering profession. We will achieve this by outreach to pre-college students, delivering project and team-based learning, developing methods to help students bridge to early career engineers, providing leadership opportunities and training and delivering continuing professional development and training for prospective, active and retired engineers; and by leveraging our world class technical programs, intellectual property, and collaborations with other organizations.

8. 8 Strategy Statement – Energy Short Version ASME will serve as an essential energy technology resource and leading advocate for balanced energy policies. Statement ASME will serve as an essential energy technology resource for business, government, academia, practicing engineers and the general public and as a leading energy policy advocate. As a credible unbiased voice, ASME will be a key source of energy technology information and standards. We will achieve this by leveraging our knowledge-based communities, expanding our energy portfolio, building a more effective energy workforce, and supporting balanced energy policies in the U.S. and other areas of the world.
