Are you interested in becoming more involved with ATPE and helping shape the future of the association? Then we encourage you to apply to serve on an ATPE state committee.

These committees are an important element of ATPE’s member-governed structure. ATPE’s eight committees provide important feedback to the ATPE Board of Directors and staff, make recommendations to the ATPE House of Delegates, and select ATPE award recipients.

If you are interested in serving on an ATPE committee, the ATPE state office must receive your completed application for committee service by July 16. Only active members can serve on an ATPE committee. A paper version of this application will be distributed to ATPE Summit attendees.
