The Committee on Professional Training promotes excellence in post-secondary chemistry education and provides leadership to the ACS in the professional training of chemists.
ACS Guidelines Revision
CPT is developing the next revision of the Guidelines, which will be adopted in 2014. Over the coming months, a series of open meetings will focus on topics related to the revisions as we aim to be responsive to all issues of importance to the community. We welcome your comments and suggestions at cpt@acs.org.
