Professional Development

GET THE PROFESSIONAL EDGE

Today's office professional does more than type and file. To get ahead, an administrative professional requires a wide variety of skills including project management, computer applications, organization, scheduling, communications, research, filing and electronic recordkeeping, customer service and event planning. These disciplines are changing so rapidly. It's hard to keep pace with the changing face of the office on your own.

With admins handling a wider variety of duties beyond strictly clerical roles, it's essential to learn the latest in office trends, culture and technology. That's where IAAP comes in. We offer office professionals industry-recognized certification and up-to-date training to help you keep the competitive edge in today's tough economic times.

The Harrisburg Chapter provides Certification Review Classes for both the Certified Professional Secretary® (CPS®) and the Certified Administrative Professional® (CAP®). Check out the Certification page for more details.

We also sponsor an annual seminar. This seminar is open to anyone interested in attending whether or not you are a member of the Harrisburg Chapter or IAAP. Recertifications are usually offered. Check out the Seminar page for more details.
