Volunteering, Commitees & Panels
Welcome to APIC’s Volunteer Job Board!
Volunteers play an important role in the mission and vision of APIC. We have many opportunities to volunteer whether you are looking for a long-term position or a short-term project.
Volunteers are eligible to receive Infection Prevention Units (IPUs) which can be used to recertify with CBIC
If you have questions about these opportunities, contact volunteer@apic.org.
Applications are currently closed.
