ASCP Workforce Initiatives

Cultivating the pathology and laboratory medicine workforce is one of the main patient-centered public policy priorities of ASCP.  Since 1988, ASCP has conducted our workforce surveys to inform the pathology and laboratory field of the most recent national workforce data.  Results from these surveys have served as the primary source of information for academic, government, and industry labor analysts. The ASCP Institute for Science, Technology and Policy (ISTP) continues to support the field’s professional recognition, scope of practice and clinical empowerment through workforce studies and advocacy activities.

Interactive Maps

ASCP has created a set of online interactive maps that incorporate findings from our workforce surveys. Developed by the ASCP ISTP workforce team using Tableau software, these interactive geographical maps intend to present the large amount of data that are collected in both the ASCP wage and vacancy surveys.
