PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS
What is a professional association?
Professional associations are typically not-for-profit organisations that act as a peak body or umbrella for professionals working in the same or similar fields. They may come up with the standards and codes of ethics to be observed by members of the profession. They also assist members to grow in their professions by providing opportunities to come together to share knowledge and attend networking events.
Visiting the website of a professional organisation is a great way to learn more about the industry. Associations often post current news, reports and sometimes internships or job opportunities.
