Our events are really YOUR events. And, to make it easier for you to
view (and attend!), we have broken "our events" into national and
regional/state categories. We also encourage anyone to let us know
of any important events and functions that you think our community
would be of benefit. Please contact us at events@recruitinglife.com.

As the personnel services profession grew, the need for national representation became more evident. The
National Employment Association (NEA) was created from two older organizations, laying the cornerstone for
what would become the National Association of Personnel Consultants (NAPC), then the National Association
of Personnel Services (NAPS).
The association was formed to represent our profession in critical legislative arenas in Washington, DC,
provide legislative guidance and aid in states where government affairs challenges exist, create a structure
of ethical practices for industry self-regulation, increase public and business awareness of the value of
personnel services, and to educate members and non-members towards better practices and the maintenance of
high professional standards.
With the formation of NAPS, education and training of practitioners took on a national dimension. NAPS
began to conduct annual conferences and seminars to bring needed help and training to individuals, owners,
and managers across the United States.
The National Association of Personnel Services has been the staffing industry educator since 1961 and enjoys
its reputation as the oldest industry association. We continue to maintain the position as the search and
staffing industry educator through our certification program, continuing education initiatives, eLearning
and our annual conference.
