Summit Focus and Overview
The administrative profession is generally viewed as a “behind the scenes” role. We are backstage making sure things run smoothly and seamlessly; many of us love that about the work we do. However, there always comes a time when we must Step Out From Behind the Curtain and Take the Stage.
The stage can look like advocating for yourself or the profession, requesting professional development dollars, pitching an idea in a company meeting, or an actual stage to deliver a presentation.
Whatever your stage is, we all have to be prepared for the moment when it comes. IAAP Summit 2024 offers learning and development so you are equipped and ready for all your stage moments. Join us at the New York Marriott Marquis in Times Square on Broadway, the perfect backdrop for epic stage moments!

What Do Your Peers Love about Summit?

Amanda Taylor
Administrative Assistant
As a first-time attendee, IAAP Summit was the ultimate experience for me as an administrative professional. The keynotes, interviews, and sessions were so motivating, encouraging and inspiring! Some even moved me to tears. I really felt like I was with my “tribe” even though I only came there knowing two other people. I met so many new people and made connections that I hope to keep in touch with over the years! I should also bring more business cards next year because I ran out halfway through the conference!

Teresa Stewart
IT Administrative Coordinator
Summit was an amazing experience that allowed me to learn more and earn recertification points, meet my fellow administrative professionals from all over the globe, and grow in my administrative career!

Deborah Beckers
Executive Business Assistant
IAAP Summit is an amazing opportunity to up your admin level. The education offered is top-notch, easy to follow, and has presenters who know their stuff and are really approachable. The networking is beyond compare. You get to meet and talk to people who “get you” right away at the administrative conference, because they are admins, and have experienced the same struggles you face. Come to Summit, Meet your People. You will not regret investing in yourself.
