The Future Professionals Advisory Committee (FPAC) is composed of a student representative from Pennsylvania colleges/universities with Health and Physical Education teacher preparation programs.

Members of this committee will serve as liaisons between SHAPE PA and their colleges/universities. Their duties include monthly zoom meetings, reporting back to their universities, involvement with SHAPE PA committees, creating professional development opportunities for our future professionals through SHAPE PA, and assisting in projects and tasks assigned by the SHAPE PA Executive Leadership Team and Board of Directors (BOD) . 

Through their experiences on the FPAC, the students will work on developing their leadership skills, network with other students from different universities, learn what other PETE/HETE programs are doing and share back to their campuses, develop planning and organizational skills, build teamwork skills, and have the opportunity to be published in the SHAPE PA communications.
