In October 2006, the AASPA Executive Board approved a strategic plan that encompassed three goals for the association:
1) Professional Development
- Develop and conduct ongoing "balanced" professional development offerings for new and veteran members.
- Examine the feasibility of developing a certification/HR credentialing/academy program.
2) Membership
- Increase membership by working closely with the National Office in developing strategies that attract and retain individuals interested in membership with AASPA.
- Develop a network of contacts that encourages affiliates to work with AASPA to promote activities and interaction, and identify opportunities for AASPA leadership to interact with and support affiliate activities.
- Create a more effective Web site.
3) National Presence
- To create a greater presence with and to foster credibility among national agencies, organizations and governmental bodies to promote AASPA goals and objectives.
