Note: All current volunteers including committee and task force members, and micro-volunteers must complete a new application to be considered for the 2023-2025 term.
There are three types of volunteer opportunities available: committees, task forces, and micro-volunteerism.
Committees: Committees consist of volunteers who contribute their time and expertise to achieve specific objectives. Committee terms last for two years and are based on the needs of the SDMS and sonography profession. Currently, the SDMS is accepting applications for open positions on the Events Management Committee and Membership Awards & Recognition Committee.
Task Forces: Task Forces consist of volunteers who contribute their time and expertise to complete time-sensitive activities or objectives. Task force members are selected based on their specialization and experience and are appointed as needed by the SDMS President. The SDMS is not currently accepting applications for Task Force members.
Micro-volunteerism: Micro-volunteerism involves completing small tasks or projects over a flexible timeframe that can range from hours, days, and months. It does not require a long-term commitment, and volunteers are selected on an as needed basis. The SDMS is currently accepting applications for the following micro-volunteerism opportunities: CME Reviewer, Award and Competition Evaluator, and subject matter experts.
