Member volunteers are the heart of our association. AMBA offers several different committees for the efficient operation of the association’s business. As part of our governance framework, we have two types of committees: Standing Committees (reporting to the Board of Directors) and Operational Committees (reporting to the CEO). Applications for all committees open in March, with committee terms beginning in May of each year. ALL committee members are required to attend an annual Committee Orientation session in May.
If you would like to be added to our contact list to be notified with committee applications open up, please fill out the waitlist form HERE.
