Facts about Administrative professional's Week











Since 1952, the International Association of Administrative Professionals has honored office workers by sponsoring Administrative Professionals Week. Today, it is one of the largest workplace observances outside of employee birthdays and major holidays.

In the year 2000, IAAP announced a name change for Professional Secretaries Week and Professional Secretaries Day. The names were changed to Administrative Professionals Week and Administrative Professionals Day to keep pace with changing job titles and expanding responsibilities of today’s administrative workforce.

Over the years, Administrative Professionals Week has become one of the largest workplace observances. The event is celebrated worldwide, bringing together millions of people for community events, educational seminars and individual corporate activities recognizing support staff.

The Administrative Professionals Week theme for 2009 is Excellence in Action. Baskets by Rita will be offering a great assortment of gift baskets for this occasion.

Everyone of these baskets were designed with our corporate customers in mind and many just for this special staff appreciation event.
