The Volunteer Committees of ASCnet
Volunteers are the lifeblood of the association. They are people just
like you: members who firmly believe in the organization’s mission
and who are willing to help direct the future of ASCnet.
If you are interested in serving on one of the committees, contact the
chair of the commitee for more information.
There are many reasons why members volunteer to serve on
committees:
- Committee
members determine the types of
classes that will be presented at the
conferences.
- Committee
members recommend products and
services that will help make your jobs
easier.
- Committee
members recommend what seminars and
lesson plans should be included in our
curriculum.
- Committee
members write the seminar handouts
and lesson plans as well as information contained in our
technical manuals.
- Committee
members help new chapters
organize.
- Committee members
promote interface!

Board of Directors
ASCnet Board members are elected by the membership to serve a 3 year term. They are selected via a nominations process from the entire membership at large.
The ASCnet officers (Chair, Vice Chair, Past Chair, Secretary & Treasurer) are appointed by the Board from the pool of elected directors which can become almost a seven year commitment to the organization.
