Professional Practice Statements In the more than 80 years since the field of association management was formally organized, no organization has ever attempted to document professional practices for association management — until now. In 1996 the Association Forum Board of Directors approved what is believed to be the first professional practice statements ever adopted by a professional society of association professionals. While product and safety standards and practices are fairly common in many trade associations, professional practice setting in professional associations representing a service field exists but is less common. The Association Forum Board of Directors decided it was time to fill this vacuum and issue professional practice statements on various issues of importance to the individuals comprising the field. "By issuing professional practice statements, Association Forum will provide association executives with a management tool they can use as examples of industry practice when working with boards and volunteers or their own staffs," said Association Forum Past Chairman John J. Prast, CAE, executive vice president of the Million Dollar Round Table. "These statements are precedent-setting and add a new chapter in the 'professionalization' of association management." |
