Who should participate?
Planning students, recent graduates, and planners in the early stage of their career (no matter their age) are encouraged to get involved in EPP.
What are the time requirements to join?
This committee meets virtually approximately every other month for one hour. In between meetings, committee members work on various tasks and programs with varied time requirements. We have something for everyone!
