Residents Urged To Seek Seat On APA Board

The APA Nominating Committee is accepting recommendations for candidates for the member-in-training trustee-elect (MITTE) position for the 2002 election.
Each year, a new MITTE is elected by APA members-in-training and serves on the Board for one year without a vote. At the end of that year, the member-in-training trustee-elect advances to member-in-training trustee (MITT) and serves on the Board for one year with voting privileges.
The resident elected in the 2002 election will serve as MITTE from May 2002 to May 2003, and as MITT from May 2003 to May 2004.
Residents must be APA members-in-training when the recommendation is made; that is, they must have been accepted as members in both APA and the district branch. They must be in their PGY-2 or PGY-3 year the summer of 2001 and submit the following information by August 6:
• A curriculum vitae no more than two pages in length.
• A one-page statement from the resident supporting his/her recommendation, including answers to these questions: What would your particular skills and experience bring to APA? What would you do to address the major issues facing psychiatry and/or APA?
• A statement from the training director or department chair indicating that if the resident is elected, the training director agrees to allow him/her to honor this two-year commitment as MITTE and MITT as part of training (see below).
• PGY-3 residents must submit a signed statement of intent to continue training through PGY-5 so as to be in training through the term as member-in-training trustee.
More information on the MITTE nominating process is available by contacting Carol Lewis, staff liaison to the Nominating Committee, at APA by phone at (202) 682-6063; by fax at (202) 682-6282; or by e-mail at [email protected]. ▪
