The Distinguished Lecturer Program features prominent experts in all aspects of hazardous materials who are prepared to lecture on recent research and new developments and topics of interest that affect workplace safety and the environment.

The Distinguished Lecturers are drawn from the AHMP membership. They and their lectures are reviewed by the Professional Development Committee for quality and timeliness. Distinguished Lecturers are needed for AHMP webinars, the Peer Consult series, and AHMP live events. We are looking for lecturers to present on environmental, health, safety, management, and career development topics of current interest.
