What is the NextGEN Community?: We are working to build a community of RSPA members that will help the industry evolve and continue to flourish. Those that are creating and offering new solutions as well as those that will take ownership as the previous generation begins to transition who are at any level of their organization (executive, sr management, management, entry level, etc). You don’t have to be a leader today to help guide the RSPA for tomorrow. All of you are welcome!
What is the NextGEN Grant?: The grant recognizes the next generation of the RSPA. This grant is awarded yearly to 5 of our industries brightest new stars. It is in place to encourage solution and service innovation and promote engagement with the RSPA by the next generation of leaders. Each winner receives an all expenses paid trip to RSPA Inspire 2019 in Ft Myers!
