APCO Seeks Committee Members to Participate in the Development of Standards
Alexandria, VA – The Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International has issued a call for participation for committee members to participate in the development of APCO standards. We currently have openings on our Technical, Training and Operational Sub-Committees.
As an American National Standards Institute (ANSI)-accredited Standards Developer (ASD), APCO International is dedicated to ensuring public safety communications has a role in the development of standards that affect our industry. APCO’s standards development activities have a broad scope, ranging from the actual development of standards to the representation of public safety communications in other standards development areas.
Participation is based on need for particular interest categories, which are users of public safety equipment and processes, producers of public safety equipment and processes, and those who have a general interest in public safety standards, such as academia, consultants and other government agencies.
If you are interested in participating, please complete the Standards Development Committee Application. If you have questions, please contact APCO International’s Comm Center & 9-1-1 Services Department at standards@apcointl.org.
The application deadline is January 20, 2017 and selections will be made based on committee need. Applications will remain active for the 2017 calendar year.
