Unions and Associations
Federal and state officials are not represented by unions, but they can obtain useful resources and professional support from several associations. For example, the National Conference of State Legislatures offers webinars and other e-learning opportunities, publishes State Legislatures magazine, offers a Women's Legislative Network, and provides career resources. Other useful organizations include the Congressional Management Foundation, Council of State Governments, and the National Governors Association.
