Volunteers Drive AMUG

AMUG succeeds and the AMUG Conference excels through the efforts of volunteers. Throughout the year—before, during and after the annual conference—our members play a vital role.

There are a range of volunteer duties to suit your interests and schedule, ranging from a few hours during the AMUG Conference to yearlong engagement on committees or as a board member.

Please consider volunteering your time. Let us know what you’d be interested in by completing the appropriate form listed below.

Volunteering Possibilities

On Committees

AMUG Committees serve for twelve months. However, most have one to 3 months of active participation. Take a look at the committees to get an idea of where your contributions would make a difference.

If you are motivated to volunteer for one of these committees, please submit an application via the volunteer form. The submission period for 2027 committees will close on June 1, 2026.

On the Board

To take the reins and influence actions that go beyond the annual conference, consider serving on AMUG’s Board of Directors. Seven of the nine Director positions are filled by member votes cast in elections.

The submission period for interested candidates will open Q4 2026.

Seven of the nine AMUG Board members: Shannon VanDeren, Tom Sorovetz, Claire Belson Barnes, Tim Bell, Ed Graham, Robin Van Bragt and Heather Natal.
At the Conference

At the conference, there are several opportunities, such as helping with registration badges, swag-bag stuffing, moderating sessions, assisting in setup and tear down of the AMUGexpo, and helping to staff the registration desk.

Note that volunteer submissions for the 2026 conference are no longer being accepted.
