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.

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 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:
