AMHS Bid Process
Members,
When submitting for a bid position in AMHS it’s VERY important to make sure you double check the MQ list to see if you are missing anything.
Expiration dates for your training may have lapsed, so as you are checking things off, you should also make sure that your certificate is up to date even if you remember completing it.
Another important note: submit your bid as soon as possible so that AMHS can review it and see if you are missing any MQs. If you submit it close to the deadline it’s a scramble for them to review it and see if you are missing anything and then you’ll have to rush to complete anything missing.
