After five years of dedicated leadership, we celebrate the impact of CEO Susan Landis as she officially retires from ACRP today. On behalf of the Boards of Trustees and staff, we want to take a moment to wish her a public farewell.
Susan brought both strategic vision and genuine heart to her role—championing the clinical research workforce, expanding access to professional development, and bringing together smart, dedicated people across the industry who are committed to driving the field forward.
Her impact is felt not only in the conversations and connections she fostered, but in the meaningful gains ACRP experienced in financial stability, membership, certification, and business development—strengthening our brand and engagement across this global community.
We are grateful for her many contributions—and for the energy, enthusiasm, and conviction she brought to ACRP every day. She pushed us to go further while keeping us grounded in our mission.
Susan, you will be missed—but thanks to you, ACRP is well prepared for what’s ahead.
