What is The Academics Practice Specialty?The Academics Practice Specialty covers hundreds, if not thousands, of topics. The professional aspects of our practice specialty interface and overlap more and more with safety, health and environmental (SH&E) professionals. An understanding of regulations and issues in academia is a must for most SH&E professionals, and it will make you a more marketable professional. With such a vast field of knowledge to cover, ASSE created the Academics Practice Specialty. ASSE has always recognized the need for academicians in the SH&E arena. The goal of the Academics Practice Specialty is to develop and disseminate a Body of Knowledge for the SH&E community. This Body of Knowledge also serves those who wish to become SH&E professionals with interests in academic topics. The practice specialty membership provides many resources. A brief overview of our resources is as follows: Academics Practice Specialty Website - The website contains links to many topics. Additional information found on the website includes Professional Development Conference (PDC) information, Body of Knowledge links, committee activities, current projects and volunteer requests. The Academics Practice Specialty welcomes your involvement in projects and committees.

They meet quarterly to discuss goal setting, assign responsibilities and approve actions. Current projects include the ongoing development of a Body of Knowledge, website expansion, newsletter content and outreach to other professional associations and organizations. This is a brief explanation of how the Academics Practice Specialty provides value to its membership. There are many ways in which you can benefit by helping us.
