    Membership Cards

    By: Gwendolyn Cox, Oct 30, 2012 12:28 PM

    Emily Allen posted the following in the 2012-2013 Division Presidents e-Group:

    Starting in January 2013, IAAP is reinstating the membership card for new and renewing members. We are also sending all new members (via mail) a hard copy new member packet in addition to sending them the link for the online new member kit.

    Here's how it works:
    Starting in January, new and renewing members will receive a membership card. New members will also receive a mailing with the current edition of OfficePro, a member brochure, a certification brochure and (when applicable) a flier with current event information.

    When members renew throughout the year, they will receive a membership card with their renewal receipt.

    Once you receive your membership card, hold onto it. Replacement cards will cost $15. We are unable to issue cards to renewing members before your next anniversary renewal date.

    “Logo Under Construction”

    As a reminder IAAP has merged two causes under one umbrella.

    Retirement Trust Foundation and Research and Educational Foundation are being merged into one non-profit organization: The Foundation of IAAP:
    The Foundation of IAAP will support the profession in the same way the RTF and R&E foundations do currently:
    *offer education http://www.iaap-hq.org/events
    *research
    *training to the administrative professional community http://www.iaaphq.
    org/events/schedule/education-forum-annual-meeting-efam
    *community based initiatives inclusive of the retirement housing at Vista Grande
    http://www.iaap-rtf.org/programs/index.html

    Through the donations of IAAP members and other stakeholders in IAAP, such as our valued corporate partners, we will continue to support admins now and into the future.
