Professional organizations are defined as a group that furthers a particular profession, those engaged in that profession, and the public interest. As part of furthering the profession, many professional associations have created programs to perform outreach to colleges and universities. Faculty and student clubs can benefit from connecting with their local chapters of the major professional associations, such as ISACA, ISSA, and ISC2. This presentation will share the benefits of professional associations, programs available to higher education, and how to connect your student clubs to the professional association.
