LOCAL IAAP CHAPTER WAIVES FEE IN SUPPORT OF ROUGH ECONOMY

 

 

Peachtree City, March 30, 2009

The Fayette-Coweta Chapter of the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP) is waiving their chapter membership fee in support of local administrative professionals during these hard economic times. 

 

During their February monthly meeting, the chapter voted and unanimously agreed to waive the twenty dollar ($20.00) local chapter membership fee for new members through May 31, 2009, although the International and Georgia Division dues still need to be paid.  "During these economic times, the IAAP Fayette-Coweta Chapter understands the needs of administrative professionals.  Whether it is keeping your current job or looking for a new one, networking is another benefit of joining IAAP" said Charlene Riedl, who recently assumed the role of treasurer. "And what a better way to celebrate April 22nd-Administrative Professional's Day than to support fellow professionals," said Sue Renfroe CPS/CAP, charter/former President and current chapter secretary.
