About Us

Since 1981, The Office Professional has been providing news, information, advice and support for administrative professionals of all stripes.  Conceived originally as a once-a-month newsletter (distributed by mail), The Office Professional has evolved over the years to be more than just a helpful read, providing audio conferences & webinars on a variety of professional training topics to help today’s office professionals enhance their skills.

The new look web edition launched in July 2011 and now prominently features an On-Demand Training section, which gives members unlimited access to a robust archive of audio conference recordings.  The newsletter is still produced each month and delivered in PDF form via email to all members (with an online archive of issues dating back to 2001).

McMurry, a leading custom publishing and marketing communication firm headquartered in Phoenix, has been the owner & publisher of The Office Professional since 2004.
