Young Professionals

The Young Professionals Group is an exciting new initiative within ASIS International. This special forum was created in 2010 to establish a comfortable environment both for ASIS members new to security and for future leaders to engage in ASIS programs and activities. The group's core mission is to develop and educate young careerists in the security industry.

Membership
While a young professional is typically defined as a member who is less than 40 years of age or who has spent fewer than five years in the security profession, we encourage participation from anyone passionate about this initiative, regardless of age or experience.

 

Getting involved...
The first step to getting engaged with the group is to contact your local chapter Young Professionals Liaison. If your chapter does not have one appointed, speak with the chapter chair.
