Chapter Program

The International Association of Administrative Professionals' mission is: Enhancing the success of career-minded administrative professionals by providing opportunities for growth through education, community building and leadership development. With this focus in mind, the Executive and Board of Directors of the Vancouver Chapter strive to provide their members with a program that is timely and meets these goals.

Kathryn Moes, CAP, in her role as president of the Vancouver Chapter, has arranged an impressive array of speakers for our 2010-2011 chapter year. You can access the program by clicking on the image left.

Most of our meetings qualify for recertification points to help our CPS and/or CAP members re-qualify (required every 5 years).

Please make plans to join us as IAAP turns jobs into careers.

The Vancouver Chapter of IAAP meets the second Wednesday of each month from September through June. Unless otherwise notified, our meetings will be held in the Hastings Room of the Renaissance Harbour Hotel, 1133 West Hastings Street, Vancouver (map).

The cost for dinner ranges from $35 to $40 for members and from $40 to $45 for guests. A vegetarian option is always available at our meetings. Should prefer the vegetarian option or if you have any dietary restrictions, please notify us at the time of your reservation. The Renaissance Hotel will do everything it can to ensure that your requirements are met. If you prefer, you may join the presentation portion of the meeting only for $5.

The meeting notice is emailed to members several weeks before the meeting date and a copy is posted on the Home page of our website. We also send a reminder closer to the date. For your convenience, a reservation form is appended to the meeting notice. You may pay in advance by cheque or credit card. You also may pay at the door with cheque, credit card or cash.
