Locksmith associations serve several valuable functions, including education, networking and sharing of best practices among colleagues. Most hold monthly or quarterly meetings, with guest speakers delivering updates on new products or helpful tips for running a small business. Many also stage annual conventions. In states that require locksmith licensing, they often help with the required training and certifications.
