Reminder: The CCAC is Seeking Members for Its Assessment Panels
The deadline for scientists and community members to volunteer as Canadian Council on Animal Care (CCAC) assessment panel members is fast approaching. These volunteers conduct visits to certified institutions with other panel members and CCAC associate directors of assessment to review all aspects of an animal care and use program related to research, teaching, and testing. The panels also assess procedures and facilities for proper ethical animal care and use and note any matters that may not be in accordance with CCAC guidelines and policies. The panels then report their observations and recommendations to the CCAC Assessment and Certification Committee.
Consult the terms of reference for more information.
Should you be interested, please forward your name, biography, brief CV (three to four pages), and contact information to the CCAC Secretariat at by October 24, 2025. You are also welcome to share this message with anyone you believe may be a good fit for the role.
