We are advancing the APC profession.
Joining the Society of Doctoral Advanced Practice Clinicians (SDAPC) grants you exclusive access to a vibrant community of doctoral-level advanced practice clinicians. No other professional group exists to support APCs at the highest level of their training. Most other organizations and societies exist to push a political agenda. Many are lobbying groups that you pay substantial years of dues to without direct benefit to the members.
How does the SDAPC benefit you?
Participate in monthly meetings and benefit from confidential professional data reports and contribute to the advancement of the profession by taking an active role in a national professional society. You have a voice at monthly meetings and the yearly conference. Individual members vote on important issues to the society and all members vote for elected officials.
Put national leadership on your resume.
. Our members have the opportunity to engage with the Society as elected officials on the national stage of professional organizations without long membership commitments. Once a member you are able to run for, and be elected to, any position open on the board of directors or as an elected official.
Boost your career through leadership experience with the Society of Doctoral Advanced Practice Clinicians! You will stand out amongst peers by taking an active role on the national professional society level.
Publish academic works without cost and be compensated for your time reviewing the work of others.
The Journal of the SDAPC (JSDAPC) is an e-publication of academic, clinical, and administrative work that only publishes content of its members and disseminates that information to the members without additional cost.
We do not charge publication fees and if asked to review that work, we provide compensation for your intellect. Most publications do not pay reviewers and charge astronomical fees for publication by authors. We believe that our member APCs have valuable information that should be shared without additional cost.
