Representing the ACOEM’s highest membership classification,
fellowship distinguishes members for their academic and scientific
contributions in occupational medicine. The program also

members with the opportunity to give back to the organization and
qualifies them for leadership positions such as officers and council
chairs of the Board of Directors.
