It is designed to promote the assessment of student organizations by their leaders and their members, to help them with planning and improvement, and assist them in responding to reviews by governing bodies and national chapters.

The program consists of three elements: a Guide for Students, a Student Workbook, and a CD-ROM for facilitators.AISO has been developed under the auspices of NACA and ACPA by two authors who are experts in organizational and leadership development, student affairs, and human resources management.This is a unique, easy to use, and effective process that reflects input from student leaders.An ACPA Publication
