SNCR Committees

Research Committees

The Society produces independent research, as well as sponsored research studies, white papers and case studies. The SNCR’s Research Committees are formed based on the project and the Fellows’ specific areas of expertise. These project-driven research committees lead and manage the research, analysis and production of all research publications. The committees work together with the Senior Fellows and full advisory board to review and approve the final projects prior to publication.
