FAQs
Local chapters are vibrant hubs where broadband professionals gather to learn, network and lead. They provide technical and leadership training, host vendor events and foster community engagement to deepen expertise and industry connections.
Visit the “Find a Chapter” page or explore the interactive chapters map on SCTE’s website. For each chapter, you can view board members, contact details and local website links to engage more directly.
Chapters organize hundreds of hours of educational sessions annually, ranging from cutting-edge technical topics to hands-on equipment training. Many sessions are recorded and shared online through the SCTE Event Calendar for expanded access.
Vendor Days, hosted by local chapters, showcase the latest technology through product demos. Broadband Skills Challenges are competitions that test both practical cable skills and knowledge—winners may advance to international levels at SCTE TechExpo. Details are available via the Event Calendar.
Volunteering—whether by serving on the chapter board, speaking at events, or mentoring—offers professional visibility and leadership development opportunities. Chapters also recognize outstanding contributions through awards like the Chapter Leadership Conference honors.
Each chapter lists board members and contact info on the SCTE site. For questions about events, volunteering or certification, reaching out to your local chapter’s volunteer leadership is the best first step.
Chapter Working Groups
Yes. Every working group includes the opportunity for a volunteer to serve as co-lead alongside SCTE staff. Co-leads help guide conversations and coordinate contributions from the group.
Yes. Any SCTE member in good standing can apply. For some groups (like the CLC working group), we may prioritize applicants with relevant experience, such as prior chapter leadership or event participation. We also welcome new voices, especially from underrepresented chapters or early-career professionals.
Most groups meet once a month for one hour. The full meeting schedule will be shared in advance, and members must commit to attending all sessions.
Absolutely. The move from standing committees to working groups was designed to maintain — if not increase — opportunities for members to contribute to national-level planning, programming and recognition efforts. The structure is more agile and focused, but it still centers on member voices.
You can let us know your interest and we may reach out for limited-scope support like reviewing materials or contributing ideas on a specific topic. If you’re interested in joining an upcoming working group or want to be considered for future roles, please email [email protected] with your name, chapter and areas of interest.
