What’s On Your Radar for 2025?

2025 is coming fast. Here are a couple of things that we just can’t wait to jump into…

➨ Decoding Your Volunteer Liaison Role (2-parts) January 28 & 30: We kick off in January with a 2-part liaison training program with our good friend Kristine Metter, MS, CAE. The program was designed specifically for staff working with volunteers and volunteer groups. And no, it’s not just an entry-level program but an expansion of what we already know and tips on how we can use this knowledge to strengthen the relationship between HQ and our components.

➨ Chapter Benchmarking Study – 2025: In Q1, we’re launching a bigger and more in-depth component (chapter) benchmarking study. Watch for your invitation to participate. If you haven’t already done so (or need a refresher), be sure to check out the 2022 study.

➨ CRP Webinars: Another round of free webinars with our partners Billhighway will be coming early in 2025. We’re still in the planning stages but watch your emails for more details. In the meantime, be sure to visit our webinar page for past webinars including a recording from our November AMA chat where we asked a panel of association experts to share their thoughts on everything from membership strategies to communication best practices to innovative tech solutions and more. It’s a must-watch!

➨ CEX 2025: Finally, be sure to mark your calendar for April 4, 2025 as we head back to the AGU Conference Center in Washington DC with our friends from Billhighway and Impexium for another day of learning and networking. The Association Component Exchange (CEX) is the only event designed exclusively for CRPs so you don’t want to miss it! Can’t make the trip? No problem … registration includes a virtual option. Stay tuned for more details.

What are you looking forward to in 2025?
