Support Professionals Program

The work you do every day in your district requires an understanding of many unique subject areas. The Support Professionals Program allows you to benefit from Illinois ASBO’s vast network of industry experts as you attend professional development opportunities catered to your needs.

Whether you are new to your position or have a long history in your district, your completion of the Support Professionals Program demonstrates your dedication to working efficiently and effectively.

Nonmembers pay $75 more per registration fee.
That means, that if you plan to attend one or more events per year, your membership will pay for itself!
