Greetings from ASPAA!
Dear ASPAA Members,
Welcome to the Arizona School Personnel Administrators Association (ASPAA)!
On behalf of the ASPAA Executive Board, thank you for being a valued member of our human resources professional association. As human resources professionals, we have a direct impact on the success of students throughout their educational careers. We have a leadership role in deciding who educates and influences our students and, ultimately, in their future. Human resources professionals are directly responsible for talent management including employing, retaining, developing, and advocating for a highly effective staff.
ASPAA is the only organization that specifically targets and represents school personnel professionals. If you are a human resource administrator, human resource support staff, superintendent, assistant superintendent, principal, or graduate student interested in this field, you will benefit from the ASPAA membership and participation. ASPAA provides professional development and networking opportunities to share, support and enhance best practices in human resources and talent management throughout the educational system.
You are essential to making a difference in the lives of students. Thank you again for being an ASPAA member. Please continue to participate and share at our professional development and networking opportunities.
Thank you,
Mr. Justin Wing
ASPAA President
TESTIMONIALS
"When I first assumed the job of Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources in PVSchools fifteen years ago, I knew a fair amount about school systems but precious little about the laws, regulations, and best practices of Human Resources in public education. The Arizona Association of School Personnel Administrators (AASPA) became a life line for me as it has for countless others over the years. I quickly learned that the people in AASPA are genuinely willing to help with time and resources. If you are in HR and you haven't joined, you need to sign up now and become an active member so that both you and the organization will grow. You won't regret it."

Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources

"Moving from the classroom to Human Resources was exciting and terrifying at the same time. It was ASPAA that provided the professional development, resource network, and relationships that have enabled me to grow into my position and to fulfill my professional duties as a Director of Human Resources, with all of its rights and responsibilities. I owe my success to my association, ASPAA."
Jason D. Hammond
Director of Human Resources

ASPAA President-Elect
"There are so many reasons to attend the ASPAA Conferences. Great keynote speakers, informative educational sessions on cutting edge HR topics by leaders in the state and awesome vendor selections. It is pretty much a guarantee that one comes away with new data that is immediately applicable. I especially like the networking opportunities with HR professionals I have known for a number of years and meeting new peers in the profession.
ASPAA conferences excel in providing districts and its members pertinent information with the never ending mandates with leaders in the state."

"I find my ASPAA membership to be just as useful and as effective as my membership with the Society of Human Resources Management (SHRM). When I first transitioned from corporate human resources to school human resources fifteen (15) years ago; ASPAA members were very instrumental in me helping transition, transform and transcend as a HR professional."
