Nominations Sought for ABC Board of Directors
 
Alexandria, VA - The American Board for Certification in Orthotics and
Prosthetics (ABC) has issued a call for nominations to fill one Director
position and one Public Member Director position on its board of
directors. The positions involve four-year terms beginning on December
1, 2005.
 
The directors will be voting members of the board and will participate
in overseeing general management of the organization's affairs, such as
policy development and governance of the organization. The Director
position must be an ABC-certified practitioner who has had past
involvement with ABC programs. The Public Member Director represents the
interests of consumers, orthotic and prosthetic patients, and other
public groups.
 
William W. DeToro, CO, FAAOP, current ABC President, is pleased to
welcome nominations to join the ABC board of directors.
 
On behalf of the current board of directors, I encourage O&P
professionals and the general public to become involved in the
nominating process. We're looking forward to the knowledge and
professional insight that new directors will bring.
 
All submitted nominations will be evaluated by the ABC nominating
committee and by the board of directors. The selection process for ABC
directors follows established norms for certification boards and is
fully compliant with the standards of the National Commission for
Certifying Agencies, NCCA.
 
ABC will review nominations submitted before August 1. For more
