Capital Chapter Library
Capital Chapters documents can be found in the Capital Chapter library or by clicking the tabs to the left.
Professional Resources
Here you'll be able to find
resources you need for yourself, or your chapter or division. For example, let's
say you're looking for help on retaining members in your chapter. Go to the
"Professional Resources" tab and find the "IAAP Document Library." In the search
function of the document library type in "member retention." All the
documents in the library that deal with the topic will pop up. Not all will be
applicable, but several will.
As the community grows, there will be
other document libraries. For example, all of the people who attended this
year's Professional Education Conference have access to a PEC e-group and
document library, where the PEC speakers contribute documents all year round for
attendees to read. That document library is open to all PEC attendees. Other
document libraries may be specific to your own chapter or division, to all
newsletters editors... It's open to what fits your needs as an IAAP member.

eGroups
This is where you connect with
others in your groups. For example, if you were one of those who signed up to go
to Education Forum and Annual Meeting during the Early, Early Contest, you can
already join the Education Forum e-group where you can connect with other
members, hear the latest news about the Education Forum ask and answer questions
and enjoy the countdown to the 2009 Forum with other members. As the web
community grows, so will the e-groups, a great place to gather.
Network
Under the "Network" tab is where
you'll find your profile, already populated with information pulled from our
membership database. Fill it out with as much, or as little, personal
information as you wish. From the navigation on the left within your "Network"
tab, you can update your profile, find contacts, check your inbox for the web
community, blog, access the groups you belong to and customize your preferences.
You can add contacts from friends in your chapter and people you meet in
the web community. There is also an option to send private e-mails to your
contacts. There's really no limit to what is offered in the web community as far
as connecting with other IAAP members, HQ Staff, asking questions and finding
the answers.
