Nominations Invited for MITTE Position

The APA Nominating Committee is accepting recommendations for candidates for the member-in-training trustee-elect (MITTE) position for APA's 2009 election.

Each year an 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 MITTE advances to member-in-training trustee (MITT) and serves on the Board for one year with a vote.

Residents must be APA members-in-training when recommended for the position; that is, they must have been accepted as APA members in both APA and their district branch. They must be in their PGY-2 or PGY-3 year in the summer of 2008. Nominees must have their director's permission to serve.

Information about the MITTE/MITT positions, eligibility criteria, and a submission form are posted on APA's Web site at<http://new.psych.org/Resources/Governance/MITTEForm.aspx>. The form to be signed by the resident's training director can be downloaded from<www.psych.org/Resources/Governance/2009DirectororChairForm.aspx>.

Nomination materials must be received by August 8.
