4As Member Communities

Resource Guide

We offer agency and discipline leaders multiple ways to engage with their community. Each is established as an ongoing group, so the benefits of participation increase over time as members become more familiar and comfortable with each other. The 4As communities have published thought leadership, created annual industry conferences, and hosted local & regional professional enrichment and talent development events.

Councils

As the project-by-project model becomes more & more prevalent in our industry, our Business Intelligence & Insight team penned a guidance report to best navigate the new world order.

Assorted Resources for Project Management

Agency Job Descriptions

The 4As maintains a large collection of standardized agency job descriptions, representing roles common within our industry.

To better find the right talent to fill key agency positions, the 4As makes available to our members detailed agency job descriptions, organized by department/discipline. These descriptions have been compiled from actual member employment offerings, and have been modified to remove specific organizational references.

We also have additional job descriptions beyond those posted here. For additional information or requests for sample job descriptions, please contact the 4As Management Services team at mgtservices@4as.org.

Project Management Committee

The mission of the 4As Project Management Committee is:

  • To better understand the Project Management (PM) discipline as it operates in agencies today by developing an overall definition of PM and creating job descriptions for the function.
  • To gather and/or develop information that may be provided to member agencies to assist them in their understanding of PM.
  • To share information amongst the roundtable members that will help them in their day-to-day PM responsibilities.
  • To elevate the role of project management in the industry.
