What is the name of the professional organization designated for your allied health specialty? Visit the Web site for this organization. Are there student memberships available? Review the general process for membership

What will be an ideal response?


Students should become familiar with the professional organization(s) representing their specific healthcare career field. Early membership as a student-member is beneficial, as it helps students become more aware of current happenings around the country in their field, and it helps them to be recognized by their externship site staff/manager/doctor(s) as somebody who is serious and attentive to their particular work in the industry. It also is a good addition to students' entry-level resumes.
