Committee Message

 Serving on the Professional Outreach Committee is a great opportunity for OPPA members who are interested in actively Promoting Professional Public Purchasing among a wider group of organizations with whom we share an affinity for providing outstanding public services. 

Committee participation will increase the visibility of both yourself and your agency as solid promoters of the value of professional purchasing staff. We have a number of ways you can use your talents, develop professionally, and get involved in the Committee's work. Please contact me if you have questions. I hope you'll join us.

Committee Goal

Represent OPPA to public entities and both community based and professional organizations through networking and educational opportunities.
