Ceramic Educational Council
Founded in 1938, the Ceramic Educational Council (CEC) is an organization dedicated to stimulating, promoting and improving ceramics education. The CEC provides a national forum for discussing issues pertinent to ceramic education, curricula and institutional affairs. Its goal is to enhance interaction among those concerned with ceramic education. The CEC provides recruiting assistance to ceramic schools and supports NICE in matters of ceramic engineering education and accreditation. The Council also represents the Society in matters pertaining to ceramic education as specifically authorized by the Board of Trustees.

An associate member of the American Society for Engineering Education, the Ceramic Educational Council sponsors a biennial educational colloquium in conjunction with NICE and administers the Student Speaking Contest at the Annual Meeting.

Keramos
The Keramos National Professional Ceramic Engineering Fraternity was established in 1902 to promote the interaction between and camaraderie among Ceramic Engineering professionals and students. One of the main functions of Keramos is to promote and emphasize scholarship and character in the thoughts of students of ceramics, to stimulate mental development, and to promote interest in the professional aspects of ceramic engineering, technology, and science.

National Institute of Ceramic Engineers
Founded in 1938, the National Institute of Ceramic Engineers (NICE) is dedicated to maintaining the ceramic engineering field as a distinct entity of professional engineering. The primary focus of NICE is accreditation. Membership in this organization is open to all engineers and scientists engaged in ceramics activity. At ACerS meetings, NICE sponsors programs with Society Divisions and the Ceramic Educational Council.
