Every month I review the membership report obtained from the IAAP website and I sort the MALs by city, then I look to see what individuals live near our chapter and send the invitations to our next meeting and information about our chapter (ie. the chapter brochure).

    The advantages I highlight are the fact that they are able to network with other local professionals such as themselves, vote privileges at meetings, and also the opportunities for leadership roles within a chapter. Our IMPACT meetings are the best time to try and get MALs to convert their membership.

    If you would like to chat more and share ideas about retention and recruitment, please contact me at iaap.clscmembership@gmail.com.

    Thanks,

    Dewoun,

    I may contact you before the start of the 2009/2010 year and maybe we can virtually chat about this. I'm sure all groups face the same challenge about retention and getting new members. I look forward to it and thank you for continuing the thread.

    Linda

    Wow - so you are an IAAP (International Association of Administrative Professionals) Member at Large...you do not belong to a particular chapter. And you live in Australia?

    You are a youngster to me, I am 62, and plan to retire at 66, four short years away - A masters at any age is quite the accomplishment. I have a friend with her masters and it turned her hair gray, and crossed one eye - ok, not really, but it was tough. I have an associates, gained at age 35, and tested for administrative skills, thus my CAP, stands for Certified Administative Professional. So, my friend, what are you doing these days?
