Members
One of our most significant responsibilities and duties as an Association is to encourage professional networking and the sharing of experiences and information among our members. The IASAP Non-Disclosure Agreement-protected sharesite serves a critical role in this activity and we encourage all members to post on it. Members can contact each other directly via their work email addresses or via the sharesite’s communications functionality.

A significant focus of our charter and activities is the education and development of our members. As a part of this effort, we seek to bring educational opportunities to our members. We likewise seek every opportunity to make our members aware of tools and services that might benefit them and their employers. We therefore solicit information on available tools, services and educational opportunities and communicate these to our membership.

MEMBER BENEFITS

As a special service to our members, we continually attempt to improve the benefits we provide. These benefits include special discount offerings of goods and services.
