The ACEP Nominating Committee is accepting nominations until March 1, 2017, for the national ACEP Board of Directors, Council speaker, and Council vice speaker positions. A true measure of a leader is knowing when it is time to accept the challenge of leadership. One must carefully consider their education, life experiences, and potential to determine when they are ready to lead. If you know you are ready to lead, don't wait for a phone call to determine your interest in seeking nomination! Take the initiative to contact your component body president or section chair to express your interest in nomination, and ask that a letter of support be submitted on your behalf. Visit Leadership Nominations for criteria and submission guidelines.
