Membership Benefits Overview
IACP has three types of memberships available:
THERE ARE MANY REASONS TO BECOME A MEMBER OF IACP, INCLUDING: Relentless Legislative AdvocacyPolicymakers regularly reach out to IACP for critical information and solutions. IACP partners with its members to advise and educate lawmakers on the effect that policy decisions have on the lives of Iowans. Together, we can advocate with one powerful voice. Individual members are also called upon by legislative subcommittees to offer their opinions on industry-related legislation.
Workforce DevelopmentIACP provides many industry-specific opportunities for professional growth, including online training, onsite education, regional training and an annual conference. Regardless of distance, all providers have access to cutting-edge learning.
Regulatory & Legislative InformationIACP ensures that members are aware of regulatory changes and happenings prior to their implementation. IACP distributes a Weekly Bill Watch and Administrative Rules Watch. One of the important benefits of this process is to distill massive amounts of information to a usable, working and relevant summary for members.
CommunicationsIACP provides timely communication of relevant industry news and events. IACP maintains a strong network of media and legislative relationships to ensure members are informed and educated. These relationships also provide opportunities to engage with key decision makers and industry experts.
Engagement & NetworkingAs an IACP member, you’ll have the opportunity to network with colleagues from across the state by participating on IACP committees, in membership forums and industry-specific workgroups. These connections offer access to statewide “best practices” and cross-learning that may help your organization to operate more efficiently and effectively.
