The National Association of Parliamentarians (NAP) is an organization with membership predominantly in the United States that says that it provides services and products to help its members and others to learn how to proceed with and manage meetings of assemblies such as school boards, homeowners associations, church boards, and volunteer organizations.

NAP was organized in 1930 and has members throughout the U.S. and in Ontario, Canada who actively study and practice parliamentary procedure in civic, charitable, community, faith-based organizations, business and professional associations, and government entities.
