professional organization
Career members' group
A professional organization is an association of people who share an occupation or field, formed to advance their common interests.
Such organizations set standards, provide certification, offer continuing education, and advocate for the profession: The American Medical Association is the largest professional organization for physicians.
Unlike unions, they focus more on credentials and ethics than collective bargaining.
