Please fill out this form if you like to be included in the CALA Directory of Experts.

Frequently, CALA Executive Committee is asked to provide recommendations of CALA members to speak on a particular topic, consult, or serve in a committee. This may include serving as an external reviewer for tenure/promotion.

This will ensure that CALA can identify and recommend experts within CALA appropriately and this directory will also be open to the public and they can reach out to our CALA experts directly.

This is optional for CALA members to fill out and the directory will be updated periodically.

We aim to highlight our many experts in CALA on our website.
