Radiologic Technology Students,

Applications for the ASRT Student to Leadership Development Program (SLDP) have opened! The SLDP is an excellent opportunity for radiography students (first year and second year) to learn more about the ASRT and get involved with the profession at the state and regional level. It is so important for students to get involved with radiology issues and be the voice of our profession.

Each year the ASRT selects two student delegates from Maine to participate in the ASRT SLDP. Benefits include an all-expenses paid trip to the annual ASRT Governance and House of Delegates meeting, a full program on leadership, expanded opportunities for professional growth, and three years of continuing SLDP opportunities from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2027. The 2025 House of Delegates meeting is scheduled to be held in Nevada.

The ASRT represents more than 156,000 members who perform medical imaging procedures or plan and deliver radiation therapy. The Society is the largest radiologic science association in the world. Its mission is to advance and elevate the medical imaging and radiation therapy profession and to enhance the quality and safety of patient care. The student ASRT membership includes many benefits and resources as you advance in your radiography journey. Student membership for one year is $35.00. For more information about the ASRT and opportunities for radiologic science students visit www.asrt.org/students.

*Note: To be considered for the SLDP, any student who applies must also be a member of the Maine Society (MSRT). I encourage you to become a member of the MSRT now and continue with membership throughout your radiography career!
