FEEA was founded in July 1986, by the leaders of the Senior Executives Association (SEA), the
National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU), the National Federation of Federal Employees
(NFFE), and the
National Council of Social Security Management Associations (NCSSMA). Leaders
from the organizations serve on FEEA's board of directors. FEEA expanded its board in 1993 to
include the
Federal Managers Association and in 1997 to include the National Active and Retired
Federal Employees Association (NARFE). In 1999, the American Federation of Government
Employees (AFGE) joined FEEA's board.  In 2003, the Federal Aviation Administration Managers
Association (FAA-MA) joined the board, followed by the Professional Managers Association (PMA)
in late 2005.  In December 2006,
Blacks In Government (BIG) also became a part of FEEA's board.
