AAT Senior Member Application Process

As a multidisciplinary organization, the AAT clearly recognizes the importance and value of all thermology members in ensuring the appropriate and safe use of this unique modality. However, to recognize individuals who have demonstrated substantial accomplishments in the field of thermology, the AAT established the category of Senior Member.
Although all AAT members who have been Certified Members for at least two consecutive years and who have at least three years of experience in thermology are eligible to apply for Senior status, designation as a Senior Member is not automatic; indeed, only a small percentage of members meet all the requirements.

  • One letter of recommendation from AAT leadership (including AAT CEO, current committee chairs, or current Executive Council members)

Senior Member Application Process

Senior Membership applications will be accepted for those who meet the above criteria in the fall of each year. Applications and associated materials are reviewed by the AAT membership committee and recommendations are forwarded to the Executive Council for approval. Applicants will be notified of their status following the Executive Council meeting by late spring. Applicants who are not approved as Senior Members will receive letters detailing which of the criteria they did not meet. Once the criterion or criteria have been met, applicants may reapply in subsequent years.
