Education Committee

The education committee is composed of 4-5 GLACLP members, including a chair and co-chair. The committee work is split between all members. This committee focuses on continuing education for our members through webinar opportunities about six times a year. The education committee is also responsible for reviewing and scoring abstracts for the annual conference. Time commitment for this committee is approximately 1-2 hours per month on average but may require more time during abstract review timeframes. Chair and co-chair roles require 3-4 hours per month, as they share a few more responsibilities.

Scholarship Committee

The scholarship committee is composed of 4-5 GLACLP members, including a chair and co-chair. The committee work is split between all members. This committee focuses on reviewing and scoring scholarship applications for internships and pre-internships. This is done 3 times per year. Time commitment for this committee is approximately 1-2 hours per month on average but may require more time during scholarship review timeframes. Chair and co-chair roles require 3-4 hours per month, as they share a few more responsibilities.

Research Committee

The research committee is research-based. You do NOT need research experience. They present a mini-webinar (30 minutes) every other month. This committee has created and continues to work on a research toolbox, annotated bibliographies, evidence based practice statements, mini webinars, and article reviews that will be available to GLACLP members. All members are encouraged and welcome to join!
