You have selected the Intern membership level.

CAHP|ACECP Interns have completed their studies, have a minimum of 12 months of total direct heritage experience in the heritage field, are currently employed in a heritage field, typically spending more than about 50% of their employment focused on heritage work. Simply being “interested” in heritage but not actively employed in a heritage-related field does not meet the requirement for Intern status.

An Intern does not have a specialization or text description listed in CAHP|ACECP’s member directory. Interns are not permitted to use the CAHP|ACECP acronym after their names. CAHP|ACECP Intern members are permitted volunteer on CAHP|ACECP committees. Upon completing the requirements for Professional Membership, CAHP|ACECP Interns are encouraged to apply for professional status. Note: Applicants do not have to be an Intern CAHP|ACECP member prior to becoming a Professional CAHP|ACECP member.

Intern membership can be held for a minimum of 1 year up to a maximum of 5 years, after which the member must apply for Professional status or is removed from the membership rolls.
