Call for Committee Volunteers

AAIM is pleased to launch the call for volunteers for FY 2027 committees and assembly leadership. All current members who meet the criteria and can meet the expectations are welcome to volunteer to serve; members generally may not serve in more than one formal leader or volunteer capacity in any given year.

The Alliance seeks volunteers that represent the broad diversity of its membership, in terms of individual sex, race, gender identity, ethnicity, and sexual orientation as well as institution size, type, patient population, and location. Read AAIM's diversity, equity, and inclusion statement.

All applications to volunteer must be submitted online no later than Wednesday, April 22, 2026 at 11:59 PM EDT.

Volunteer Application

The FY 2027 Call for Volunteers is now open. Submissions must be completed online no later than 11:59 PM EDT on April 22.

Application Information & Requirements

Applicant Requirements

Applicants are required to:

  • Be current members in good standing (i.e., your institution’s FY 2026 dues have been paid and will be paid in FY 2027).
  • Complete the brief application form—which asks questions about interest and experience—no later than Wednesday, April 22. Uploading a CV or resume is optional.

Applicant Expectations

Applicants are expected to:

  • Have maintained membership for at least three years.
  • Have registered for at least two Alliance or association meetings in the last four years.
  • Respond promptly to requests for information and status emails; selected volunteers who do not respond to confirmation emails will lose their opportunity.
  • Understand that the Alliance is committed to providing more members more opportunities to serve. As a result, members may generally hold only one elected or appointed role per year; current council members are not permitted to serve on committees; committee members may only serve one three-year term (except survey committees, which permit one term renewal).

Committee Member Expectations

Individuals selected for committees and task forces are expected to:

  • Be able to serve a three-year term
  • Abide by “Roles, Responsibilities, and Expectations for AAIM Volunteer Leaders”
  • Attend monthly committee conference calls or facilitate quarterly assembly to council communications
  • Actively participate in discussions, including contributing ideas and volunteering to conduct the proposed work
  • Be willing to contact subject matter experts within and beyond their personal networks to assist the committee or the Alliance
  • Register for and participate in Alliance in-person and virtual conferences. No reimbursement for registration, housing, or travel is provided for committee members.
  • Understand that the Alliance name and logo may not be applied to papers, statements, recommendations, presentations, guidance, online materials, or other resources for members without explicit permission from AAIM
  • Understand the decisions and plans of the committee or assemblies are subject to Alliance policies as well as approval and resourcing by the AAIM Board of Directors.
