Explore the uniqueness of associations that went all virtual
According to a recent article, the shift towards remote work among associations is a trend expected to continue in 2024. With the pandemic demonstrating that associations can function—and function well--remotely, and technological advances making easier to be 100 percent virtual, associations are choosing to go completely virtual and many are using a hybrid model.
Recognizing this trend, Kevin Helm, MBA, CAE, and David Westman, CAE, created the Virtual Association Network (VAN). The purpose of VAN is to explore the uniqueness of associations that chose to be 100 percent virtual.
VAN conducts an annual survey that collects data about membership, staff recruitment, retention and benefits, government compliance, staff benefits, and other operational issues relevant to associations that are 100 percent remote. Join AXC for our February program where Kevin will discuss VAN’s 2023 survey key findings and share some interesting survey data with AXC participants.
