Businesses play a crucial role in supporting MOASPA by providing sponsorship that helps fund events, training programs, and conferences. Their financial contributions enable HR organizations to offer valuable resources and development opportunities to members. 

MOASPA provides ongoing professional development opportunities for its members.  Each year MOASPA hosts an annual conference at Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri which is a three day event for business members and human resources professionals.

MOASPA offers a host of opportunities for members to engage with other human resources professionals throughout the state.  Networking with other school human resources professionals at annual conferences, webinars, and monthly regional meetings offers numerous benefits that enhance both personal and organizational growth. 

These events provide valuable opportunities to share best practices, stay current on industry trends, and gain insights into innovative HR strategies and technologies. Engaging with peers in different sectors and regions fosters collaboration, helps solve common challenges, and broadens professional perspectives. 

Additionally, building a strong professional network can lead to mentorship opportunities, career advancement, and access to resources that might not be readily available within one's own organization. Ultimately, consistent networking strengthens the HR community and contributes to more effective and strategic human capital management.

MOASPA members have the opportunity to network in person or virtually at the following events:

MOASPA Fall Conference            August 27-29  Margaritaville, Lake of the Ozarks

AASPA Annual Conference        October 7-10   Nashville, Tennessee

MOASPA provides a wealth of resources to its members by supporting ongoing collaboration and networking of our members through a variety of platforms. We host a valuable yearly conference, an online discussion space and regularly scheduled local meetings for professional learning and development. MOASPA supports four regional organizations where members from neighboring districts gather to study and debrief current issues and trends related to human resources and career placement. And we partner with other state organizations for professional learning and networking.
