What is a Professional Association?
A professional association is a group of individuals working together to advance the interests of the profession and to support one another in professional development. These organizations often develop a code of ethics or other guidelines for the profession. They advanced continuing education opportunities, host conferences, and may publish white papers or journals related to the profession.
