EORD Interest Section Committees
Interest Section Committees
Each committee has at least three members and generally no more than 30 members. All committees are made up exclusively of AAAAI members, however, non-members may be asked to participate in a committee meeting or provide expert counsel on a certain issue.The role of Interest Section committees is to facilitate the exchange of information among and between Interest Section members, consider any need to establish standards in the field, and conduct appropriate, approved research projects.
All AAAAI members are eligible to serve on any Interest Section Committee regardless of their status as an Interest Section voting member. However, they may not serve on more than three Interest Section Committees at the same time.
