The four statewide officer positions are: President, Vice President, Secretary-Treasurer, and Recording Secretary. Every eligible member considering running for any of these offices is encouraged to review the detailed descriptions of the responsibilities and expectations of each position as approved by the APC Council here.
The support policy for statewide officers adopted by the Council will also be accessible via our website.
Eligibility: Candidates must be active members of APC (i.e., currently employed in Unit 4 and dues-paying members of the Union).
