This is ASTA's policy document regarding its relationship with an association management service provider. It is ASTA’s policy that the association retain the services of an association management services provider rather than operate as a “free-standing” association with direct association employees and staff to allow ASTA to focus on key membership services programs, such as government relations, rather than on administrative issues related to managing the association, and to allow ASTA to make the most effective use of limited financial resources.

This is ASTA's policy document regarding roles and responsibilities. ASTA shall have defined roles and responsibilities for all elected leaders, committees, and the chief staff officer to set performance expectations and clearly define the roles and responsibilities of elected and volunteer members and the paid staff to ensure maximum efficiency in achieving ASTA’s goals.
