What is the relationship of the ARC-PA to the AAPA?
The American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) is one of the collaborating organizations of the ARC-PA. It nominates individuals from its membership to serve as commissioners on the ARC-PA. The AAPA nominates individuals to fill 3 commissioner seats. Each commissioner is appointed for a 3 year term, which is renewable once upon recommendation by the ARC-PA and approval by the AAPA board.
