Professional Development
AAPS provides professional development (PD) opportunities to its members which are planned by the Professional Development Committee. We offer a variety of topics which fall generally into the categories of: Professional Skills, Personal Development and General Interest. Formats range from intensive small group seminars to large audience presentations depending upon the content.
Professional Development Committee
This group of volunteers is responsible for assessing the learning needs of AAPS members and planning PD events to respond to those needs. If you are interested in joining this committee please contact us.
