Committees

 

AACPM has a number of committees that provide opportunities for member participation in the governance of the Academy.  These committees are the true workhorses of the Academy, providing the guidance, planning and execution of nearly all of the Academy’s activities.  AACPM has three types of committees, as follows:

 

Standing Committees – Standing committees are those committees specifically identified in the Constitution and Bylaws of the Academy.  These committees require a vote of the Delegates to enact changes in purpose, name or makeup.

Committees of the Board Committees of the Board are those committees established by the Board of Directors to carry out specific functions, projects or assignments felt by the Board to be important to address.  These committees are not named in the Academy's Constitution and Bylaws. 

Ad-hoc Committees – Ad-hoc committees are special committees created by the Board to address specific, short term issues not covered under the scope of the standing committees or the committees of the board.
