Vincent Schaefer began his work as a meteorological consultant when he was still with General Electric, then continued during his Munitalp years, but his consulting services increased in the late 1950s as he became officially involved with the American Meteorological Society (A.M.S.) and New York State Teachers College. It was through the A.M.S. that Schaefer became a certified meteorological consultant. A highly diverse selection of institutions and individuals sought Schaefer's advice; his name and work began to be widely known during his General Electric days and continued to be recognized (and respected) when he was director of research for Munitalp.
