Do I need to be an AIC member to become a volunteer?

• Yes, all AIC members are eligible, AACI, CRA, Candidates, Students, Associates and AACI (Hon.)

Is there travel involved?

• Increasingly technology is permitting volunteers to contribute without leaving their office or home. AIC has increased the use of virtual meetings and web-based meetings are being used more and more. During any given year a number of committees met virtually. There may be limited travel involved in your commitment.

What is the time commitment?

• Depending on which committee or initiative you are involved in the time commitment will vary. It may be as brief as acting as a resource on an issue, participating in a media interview, writing an article, presenting a powerpoint prepared by AIC, serving on committees.

Will I earn CPD credits for my volunteer work with AIC?

• For the answer to this question please view this table that outlines credits earned for AIC volunteer hours or refer to the CPD Guidlines.                

What will I be doing, and will I be having contact with members?

• Again, depending on which committee or initiative you take on may result in member contact via surveys; questionnaires or consultations.
