Administrative Assistant Support Council (AASC)

Connecting Through Our Strengths

Welcome to the home page of the Administrative Assistant Support Council! The AASC exists to provide necessary assistance for administrative professionals in all facets of work life. Today’s administrative professionals need to be skilled in project management, budget and finance, technology, and writing. In addition to these skills, admins must have leadership qualities, advanced communication skills, the ability to think critically, and maintain work/life balance.

Whether you are new to SLCC or a tenured administrative professional, you are a member of the Administrative Assistant Community. Our duties often revolve around making our administrators’ lives’ efficient and smooth. The AASC is here to do the same for their support.

The AASC is a Council composed of SLCC administrative support professionals. New members are inducted once a year (July) to be standing members of the AASC. An application is sent out to all administrative support professionals around mid-May detailing the time commitment, list of duties, and where your interests may be. During your term, your goal will be to further the resources and culture of the Administrative Assistant Community by way of training, recognition, and even as far as a listening ear.
