A Tradition of Improving Conditions for Federal Employees
The Professional Managers Association (PMA) was founded in 1981 by a group of managers from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Forty Years of Defending Career Federal Executives
This year marks 40 years of the Senior Executives Association serving as the voice of career leaders and aspiring leaders. Today, SEA is just as committed to defending merit-principles, promoting excellence in government, and ensuring adequate compensation for senior leaders as we have been since our creation in 1980. While these battles change in nature over time, their foundation remains the same: ensuring a qualified and professionalized senior leadership cadre across federal agencies is equipped to serve the American people.
Relief Open to All Civilian Federal and Postal Employees

All of our programs are described in detail on our website at feea.org.
At the Intersection of Science and Governance
As the country responds to the COVID-19 pandemic, we see many examples of the need to coordinate the activities of the scientists and technologists on the front lines of virus response with those of the public administrators charged with protecting and supporting the public. Government leaders are sharing their success stories - not because they are deeply experienced in epidemiology or medicine, but because they have implemented effective strategies for managing resources and making sound, data-informed decisions.
Defenders of the Classic American Turkey Club
