January brings new beginnings for everything, including AATCC committees. Many administrative and research committees welcome new officers this month. Others are welcoming back officers who signed on for an additional term. These dedicated volunteers are the power behind all that AATCC does to connect, educate, and strengthen the textile industry.
Several committees are still seeking chairs. This is an opportunity to grow or utilize leadership skills and be recognized as an expert in your field.
If you are interested in joining or chairing a committee, please visit https://aatcc.org/join/#committees or contact Diana Wyman (diana@aatcc.org; +1.919.491.3803).
