AABPA aims to foster career development through interaction among members, many of whom work at the top levels of their profession; through monthly, informal discussions featuring well-known experts; and through twice-yearly symposia that attract the entire membership and invited guests. We also maintain a jobs forum, where employers can post job notices and job-seekers can develop leads.

AABPA maintains an active series of brownbag lunch programs featuring experts in public budgeting and program analysis. The programs are designed to impart specialized and highly practical knowledge on complex budget/policy issues, and to give AABPA members a chance for direct and informal contact with colleagues and with recognized authorities in the field. CPE credits are available for our monthly programs, as well as the seminars. Just scroll to the bottom of the Program announcement for the CPE credit form. We welcome suggestions for future programs. Please send them to AABPA@aol.com, with subject heading "Monthly Program Suggestion."
EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN BUDGETING AND RELATED FIELDSAs you scroll down on this page you will find links to current job announcements in budgeting and related fields. We do not systematically scout out job announcements. We rely on employers sending the webmaster summaries (and web links if you have them) of current announcements of possible interest to the members of the AABPA. We shall post condensed versions of your announcements for free shortly after receiving them. Applicants should be referred to web sites they can visit or phone numbers they can call for the complete application. Announcements without closing dates will be listed for approximately 30 days. Thanks for your support of this service.
