A. We have another subcommittee within Membership that we call the “Flex” option. Here we seek ways to credit on-the-job experience as fulfillment of related academic re quirements. In a sense, we are “grandfathering” (or “grandmothering”) applicants in as Associate members people who clearly are already practitioners in our profession, a profession that has not formally existed for much more than 20 years.
