ASHRAE<\/a> has announced that an agreement has been reached with the Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA)<\/a> for IAQA to transition to an association management firm. <\/p>\n

IAQA became an affiliate of ASHRAE in 2015. In that relationship, IAQA\u2019s operational base became integrated within ASHRAE\u2019s headquarters operations in Atlanta. With this change, IAQA will take on a more independent management position. Both organizations are committed to continue collaborative programming that benefits all members involved. <\/p>\n

\u201cASHRAE has progressed strongly as a global society and our focus now turns to positioning each organization for long-term growth and leadership,\u201d says 2018-19 ASHRAE President Sheila J. Hayter. \u201cThe best way to accelerate that transformation is by separating our associations to uniquely position both ASHRAE and IAQA to lead their markets, while focusing strongly on the needs of our members.\u201d<\/p>\n

During its affiliation, IAQA operated independently within ASHRAE\u2019s organizational structure, maintaining its own brand and Board of Directors. Both associations viewed the initial partnership as an asset for the growth and development of each organization\u2019s membership base. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis change comes as a necessity to ensure the growth, expansion and financial stability of our membership and association,\u201d says IAQA President Jay M. Stake. \u201cIAQA will now be managed by AH, an association management company (AMC) with offices in Mount Laurel, N.J., and suburban Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n

IAQA will continue to offer corporate and individual memberships, education, conference and resources to indoor air quality professionals. ASHRAE will continue its longstanding leadership of IAQ sciences and technologies.<\/p>\n

A task force has been established to examine the best path forward for both organizations. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
