Belonging:
Podiatric medical assisting is a small and rapidly changing professional career. As a result, our role is not understood as well as it should be by other professionals, our peers, educators, and the general public. Obtaining membership in the ASPMA will establish your identity as a podiatric medical assistant, a professional whose support and participation will help the profession develop and gain recognition.
Who Can Belong?
Anyone employed by a doctor of podiatric medicine who is a member of the American Podiatric Medical Association. We invite you to fill out and mail our membership application.
Advancing
Advancement occurs by testing and becoming certified. Members are eligible to take the exam after completing the membership application and receiving Member in Good Standing cards. The exam is compiled and administered by a qualifying and examining board consisting of seven certified podiatric medical assistants and two doctors of podiatric medicine. A Certified board member administers the exams at various meetings. Times and places are listed in the Journal.
