We have two volunteer recruitments per year for open committee positions: one for our certification-related committees and one for membership-related committees.
The next volunteer cycle will take place in Spring, 2026.
Our spring recruitment cycles focus on committees for education, test development, residency training programs and other certification-specific activities and do their work from July – June of each year. The call for volunteers for these committees goes out in the spring.
Our fall recruitment cycles focus on committees for Membership, Maintenance of Credentials, Education and Research (ERC) and Advanced Continuing Education (ACE), do their work from January – December. The call for volunteers for these committees goes out in early fall.
Sign up to be contacted about smaller, one-off volunteer opportunities.
