What is the Chapter Management Program?
The Chapter Management Program (CMP), a program managed online through the Deltasig Hub, is the method of formal communication between collegiate chapters and the national Fraternity. The program is divided into three annual achievement levels for collegiate chapters. The levels represent basic operational requirements in recruitment, membership, finances, professional and service programs, and leadership development. These sections reflect the practice of essential business principles and operations expected of each chapter as part of our professional business Fraternity, as well as the professional and leadership development opportunities for each member. All chapters are expected to reach the first level, Accredited Chapter. If all requirements for the first level are completed, the chapter may seek to achieve the second level, Chapter of Recognition, and then the third, Chapter of Excellence. The additional optional requirements focus on alumni and faculty events, new member education, large scale events, and promotion of the national Fraternity. Chapters are recognized for the highest level they achieve.
