About Our Chapter

The Southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois (better known as SWANI) Chapter of IAAP chartered in 1961.  The chapter meets ten times per year (every month except July and August), with a social gathering rather than a business meeting, in December.  Our meetings are held in various locations around Janesville and Beloit, to include Lab Safety Supply, Mercy Hospital, Domenico's, Hhffrrrggh's, and others.  With a diverse representation of employers, we offer great networking opportunities with our members.  We invite you to come and see what we are all about!  Contact Lisa Skarlupka at lskarlupka@blackhawk.edu for more information about our meetings or Roxanne Matteson at roxanne.matteson@jpcullen.com for more information about membership in IAAP.

About IAAP

The International Association of Administrative Professionals is a not-for-profit professional association for office professionals with approximately 40,000 members and affiliates and nearly 600 chapters worldwide. Our mission is to enhance the success of career-minded administrative professionals by providing opportunities for growth through education, community building and leadership development. The association founded in 1942 as the National Secretaries Association to provide a professional network and educational resources for secretarial staff. The association's name was changed in 1998 to the International Association of Administrative Professionals to encompass the large number of varied administrative job titles and recognize the advancing role of administrative support staff in business and government.

Our core values:
  • Integrity: We demonstrate this cornerstone of our profession through honesty, accountability and high ethical standards.
  • Respect: We create respect within our profession and association through listening, understanding and acknowledging member feedback.
  • Adaptability: We ensure the success of our association by embracing positive change and by nurturing diversity, creativity and visionary thinking.
  • Communication: We cultivate and maintain excellence by remaining approachable at all levels, communicating openly and building strong relationships.
  • Commitment: We are steadfast in our goals to develop learning opportunities for career-minded administrative professionals and to strengthen efficiency and effectiveness.
