RAPS Fellows Program

The RAPS Fellows Program annually bestows an honorary recognition upon exceptional leaders making noteworthy and sustained contributions of leadership to their organizations, RAPS and the regulatory profession. Those who are named RAPS Fellows are committed to contributing continued leadership and service to the global regulatory community.

Becoming a Fellow

RAPS Fellows are the masters of the profession who thrive on building and sharing regulatory knowledge that shapes the profession's future. Giving back to the community is second nature and serving as a volunteer is a priority. Fellows represent all segments of RAPS membership, including industry, government, academia, research and clinical organizations.

Candidates for the RAPS Fellows Program must show contributions made to the profession outside of daily work, such as:

• Mentorship
• Co-authoring publications and feature articles.
• Speaker at events
• Going above and beyond your job description to nurture the profession.

These are the things that set you apart from your peers and are the attributes we are seeking. The rigorous selection process guarantees that only regulatory professionals with the highest qualifications and experience are selected. Applications, evaluated by a selection committee of rotating RAPS Fellows, are reviewed yearly.

The application cycle for the RAPS Fellows Program 2023 is now open. We encourage interested candidates to learn more about the fellows’ program, including eligibility and the application process, to prepare for the 2023 program. The deadline for submission is 24 April 2023.
