About Us

About Toronto Chapter

With 140 members, the Toronto Chapter (one of 15 in Ontario), is the largest chapter in the International Association of Administrative Professionals (IAAP). We offer monthly meetings, various seminars and a conference. We have a mentor program, a study program and provide opportunities for leadership development. 

IAAP Toronto chapter is connected to the IAAP internet community, allowing members to network and connect with their peers across the country and around the world. 

We present Toronto Chapter business cards to all members to encourage networking because we believe that IAAP should be a place for connecting, within the chapter and the business community. We offer monthly programs on current, relevant topics of interest and we encourage our members to attain their CPS/CAP certification. In addition, members may participate in local, district, national and international education seminars and conferences hosted by IAAP.

Join us at a monthly meeting – bring a friend or colleague (all are welcome). Come out and see who we are and how membership in your professional association can help you achieve your goals.

About IAAP

The International Association of Administrative Professionals is a not-for-profit professional association for office professionals with approximately 30,000 members and affiliates and nearly 600 chapters worldwide. Our mission is to enhance the success of career-minded administrative professionals by providing opportunities for growth through education, community building and leadership development. The association founded in 1942 as the National Secretaries Association to provide a professional network and educational resources for secretarial staff. The association's name was changed in 1998 to the International Association of Administrative Professionals to encompass the large number of varied administrative job titles and recognize the advancing role of administrative support staff in business and government.

Our core values:
  • Integrity: We demonstrate this cornerstone of our profession through honesty, accountability and high ethical standards.
