We are celebrating another great year of volunteering at ARDMS!
Our gratitude and thanks go to the 576 VOLUNTEERS who played a role in writing questions (we call these items) and ensuring that our examinations reflect current practice, mentoring new volunteers, providing information about ARDMS to colleagues at regional meetings and national conferences, talking with Sonography students about the value of our credentials, and governing our organization of 94,000+ Registrants with vision and commitment in 2017.
Thinking about volunteering? We invite you to read about what opportunities are available and to apply online. Log into MY ARDMS, click Volunteer Now, create your profile, and explore. Please email your questions to volunteer@inteleos.org.
