Looking for Volunteers to Join the Executive Committee

With our annual general meeting coming up in April, we are opening up the nominations for the 2025-2026 Executive Committee. All positions are open for nomination, and if we receive more than one nomination for any position, a vote will be taken at the AGM.

The current EC officers in the Membership Coordinator and the Vice President positions have decided to stay on, and we have already received a nomination for Secretary. This means we are looking for people to fill the roles of:

  • President
  • Treasurer
  • Program Coordinator
  • Registration Coordinator, and
  • Social Media Coordinator

You may view any role’s position descriptions here. Contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions. If you’re ready to join the team, complete this nomination form and submit it to the email indicated on the form.

The AAP and its branches are volunteer-run, for members, by members, and we need members to step up to keep the branch operating. Without members getting engaged, the Edmonton Branch runs the risk of being deactivated.
