Then you might wish to become the next AAPT Council student representative

The AAPT Council has a co-opted seat available - that of the Student Representative. We are very grateful for the outgoing Student Rep Eve Murrell MAAPT who has excelled in providing a voice for student APTs given this is a very difficult time for many trainees during the COVID-19 pandemic.

• To report back to the AAPT Council on a regular basis of student concerns / compliments and progress with APT qualifications – face to face & written report
• To be involved in relevant committees as the student representative to promote the student voice and provide signposting to events of interest that would support student learning
• To be a regular contributor to AAPT news forums – website / Facebook & Twitter – promote good news stories of student's achievements 
• To signpost students with specific concerns / ideas or improvements to committees within the current AAPT structure
• To attend the Annual Educational Event (possibly have a student rep table / area) 
• To promote the online AAPT CPD portfolio 
• To participate in AAPT careers webinar events

If you would like to express an interest, email the AAPT Secretary by no later than 10^th July 2022 and tell us a little bit more about how and why you fulfil the role. You will be a member of the AAPT to take up this role.
