The bylaws were amended by deleting the definition of the Certified Fitter Orthotic/Mastectomy as that credential has been eliminated.

The Secretary retains a one-year term while the Treasurer has a two-year term and each are elected from among the members of the board. The term of the Immediate Past President was defined as one-year. Also, a change to the required notification of proposed regular meetings of the board as well as changes to the bylaws was amended to allow for regular or electronic mail.</ExplanationTxt>
