Application for Board Certification and/or Academy Membership
Membership in the American Academy of Micropigmentation is a privilege. Invitation for membership is based upon a practitioner's procedural competence, professional qualifications, education, training and ethical conduct and support in the past and present of the mission of the Academy. Training outside the United States is not generally recognized by the Academy as there is no way to evaluate the training. The Academy accepts only those practitioners that meet the highest established standards of professionalism. A member of the AAM who violates these principles is subject to disciplinary action and suspension or expulsion from the Academy. The Academy is an academic resource and refuge for men and women worldwide who seek to achieve the highest possible standard of care in an effort to benefit and protect the public, the profession and other professionals. We are the American Academy of Micropigmentation and we are here to serve you.
