The Association Pro's Toolkit: Insights from the Latest Research


Association Forum recently completed a landmark research study which assessed the core skills needed by association professionals at various career stages. Powered by Visit Omaha and Hargrove & Associates, Inc., this industry benchmarking study identified the competencies and skills necessary for an association professional to thrive, and also assessed the readiness of today’s workforce on those capabilities. In addition, the survey gauged where and how learners are currently receiving their learning, and if that is expected to change in the future.

The research project, titled “Association Professionals: Essential Skills for Future Challenges”, provides a blueprint for ensuring that association professionals – and the organizations they work for – are well-equipped for the challenges of tomorrow's dynamic and innovative association sector.
