ACEP Council Resolutions Tackle Key Issues

What Is the ACEP Council?

The ACEP Council is the governing body of ACEP. It elects ACEP’s Board of Directors, the President-Elect of the College, and, every two years, the Council Speaker and Vice Speaker. It also shapes policy. The Council is composed of:

  • One voting councillor per Chapter
  • One additional councillor for every 100 Chapter members
  • One voting councillor per Section
  • Eight voting councillors from the Emergency Medicine Residents’ Association
  • One councillor each for the Association of Academic Chairs of Emergency Medicine, the Council of Emergency Medicine Residency Directors, the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine, and the American College of Osteopathic Emergency Physicians

To learn more, see “An Overview of the ACEP Council and How It Governs Strategy and Policy,” in the Sept. 2021 issue.
