What is ACPM Fellowship?

Members may apply to become a Fellow of the College after three consecutive years of full membership and once they have completed all requirements and processes as outlined by the College.

Fellows may add the credential FACPM to their signature and are eligible for additional member benefits, including access to exclusive events and leadership opportunities through the Board of Regents. To maintain use of the FACPM credential, individuals must remain full-members in good standing with the College.
