COMITÉS 2022-2024 ET LIENS AVEC LES ASSOCIATIONS


L’ACDP/CAPD compte un certain nombre de comités permanents, ainsi que des participations au sein d’autres associations dentaires et professionnelles en vue d’y assumer des responsabilités précises au service des membres de l’ACDP/CAPD. Nous estimons qu’il est important que les MEMBRES sachent que votre conseil exécutif et plusieurs bénévoles sont impliqués activement au sein de l’industrie et qu’ils surveillent vos intérêts, tant à l’échelle nationale qu’à l’échelle internationale. L’engagement des membres est une marque distinctive de notre Académie.


Toute personne intéressée à siéger au sein de l’un ou l’autre des comités est priée d’entrer en contact avec son président ou sa présidente ou d’envoyer un courriel à directorofoperations@capd-acdp.org.
