Committee Rosters and Charges
Volunteer service is the lifeblood of ICE, and it offers participants great rewards! Volunteer service allows you to shape and impact the credentialing industry; use your expertise to benefit your professional association and learn from peers; and, of course, make new friends and have fun!
