Forums

Welcome to the Salem APA Chapter forum! Statewide APA participation is more than welcome here as we converse as colleagues of the Massachusetts System of State Universities. As an introduction, we have several restrictions to your becoming a forum user. First you should be an APA member, or retired APA member. You must use your real name, and use your university email address to register. Things to keep in mind: This forum is owned and operated by the Salem APA Chapter, and we reserve the right to allow or deny access to this forum to any established or proposed user(s). Users must comply with the above credential requirements. And also follow moderate Internet forum etiquette: Do not use profanity. Do not make topics directed at individual persons known or unknown to the union. Do not personally deride individual persons known or unknown to the union within the discussions. You will be removed and denied access if you cannot agree to be professional and respectful in how you present your topics, opinions and discussions. And remember, you are basically representing yourself and freely participating. You remain accountable to a code of ethics as both an APA member and a Commonwealth of Massachusetts employee. The purpose of this forum is to allow a place for APA professionals to discover and communicate topics of interest related to employment as an APA member. Union related, or profession related — We aim to encourage and strengthen APA collegiality.
