RETIRED MEMBERS


Members who are considering retirement or have already retired may qualify for “Retired Member” status with CAPD/ACDP. This membership category is described in the By-Laws under 4.2.3.


Members of the Academy who have been active members for a minimum of 10 years and who have voluntarily and completely retired from dental practice, administration and/or academic teaching positions are eligible to apply for Retired Member status. Retired Members shall be exempt from CAPD/ACDP membership fees and will have continued access to the “Members Only” section of the CAPD/ACDP website, member e-blasts/communications and electronic/printed publications of The Mirror. Retired Members do NOT have the right to vote, to make nominations or to hold office.


Applications for Retired Membership status shall be made to the Membership Committee Chair via e-mail at vicepresident@capd-acdp.org or in writing to the Membership Committee Chair at CAPD/ACDP, 1815 Alta Vista Drive, Ottawa, Ontario K1G 3Y6.
