Open Call

The Board of Directors, in conjunction with the Admissions Committee, issues an annual call for new members.

Documentation submitted for membership in the Society of Assistant Directors and Script Supervisors will be collected and evaluated by the Admissions Committee, which will then present candidates to the Board of Directors for final approval. A period of fifteen calendar days following the Board's approval will be allowed for any objections to be raised, in which case the application will be subject to re-evaluation; otherwise, the applications will be deemed approved.
