The National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences is looking for a Pathologist to sit on a committee. The committee is the Review Committee for Accredited Programs (RCAP). The committee meets twice a year, once in person and once via a lengthy teleconference (day). The face-to-face meeting is in Chicago or the surrounding area. The teleconference meeting is held in February and the in- person meeting is in July. This is a volunteer position, but NAACLS does cover all travel costs associated with the meeting. They also feed you very well.
The RCAP is comprised of 22 members. To ensure appropriate representation from the professions of clinical laboratory science, pathology and education, the composition of the CLSPRC includes: five CLS/MT educators; five CLT/MLT educators; two HT/HTL educators; one clinical pathologist; one anatomic pathologist; two pathologists’ assistant educators or practitioners; two cytogenetic technology educators or practitioners; two DMS educators; one four-year educator generalist; and, one two-year educator generalist. Ideally the candidate will have experience with the accrediting process and have some time to devote to reviewing documents related to program accreditation. The document review usually takes place a month or two before each meeting. There are also small sub-committees. Initially the committee member will be paired with an experienced member of the committee. If you are interested in this position or know a great pathologist that would be interested please contact me and I will send you more information regarding the position. NAACLS would like to fill this position as soon as possible, so that the pathologist is familiar with the process before the July meeting. Thank you, Jennifer MacDonald Jennifer MacDonald Education Coordinator, Histotechnician Training Program Mt. San Antonio College 1100 N. Grand Ave. Walnut, CA 91789 (909) 594-5611 ext. 4884 jmacdon...@mtsac.edu
