About the

Located in Fredericton, the capital city of the Province of New Brunswick,

of North America, a not-for-profit professional organization dedicated
to all aspects of the Art and Science of illumination.
The City of Fredericton is home to about 50,000 people. It is located
in the heart of central New Brunswick on the St. John river, approximately
112 kilometres (70 miles) from the river mouth at the Bay of Fundy. The
Fiddlehead Section includes the City of Fredericton, along with all of
South Central New Brunswick from the Québec border in the west,
to the Bay of Fundy in the east.
About the IESNA
Founded in 1906, the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America
(IESNA) is the recognized technical authority on illumination. For nearly
one hundred years its objective has been to communicate information on
all aspects of good lighting practice to its members, to the lighting
community, and to consumers through a variety of programs, publications,
and services. The strength of the IESNA is its diversified membership:
engineers, architects, designers, educators, students, contractors, distributors,
utility personnel, manufacturers, and scientists, all contributing to
the mission of the Society: to advance knowledge and disseminate information
for the improvement of the lighted environment to the benefit of society.
