How to Find PA Jobs, Members, or Scholarships on the AKAPA Website

Updated

The Alaska Academy of PAs (AKAPA) site at akapa.wildapricot.org is a navigation hub for Alaska PA practice, membership, events, and student resources. If you are looking for a job, a colleague, or scholarship money, the site points you to three separate destinations: Job Listings for Alaska PA openings, FIND A MEMBER for the member directory, and the Jessica Stevens Memorial Scholarship application for students. All three are reachable from the homepage's "Useful Links" and main menu areas, though some require you to be logged in or to follow a link off the main page.

Finding Alaska PA Jobs

The homepage includes a direct prompt to "View current employment opportunities," which is the entry point for the Job Listings section. This is where Alaska PA positions are posted.

  • What you get: A listing of current openings, described on the site as "current employment opportunities."
  • How to reach it: From the homepage, follow the "View current employment opportunities" link, or use the Job Listings item in the site menu.
  • What to expect: The site does not state whether job listings are public or require a member login, so treat access as unconfirmed until you click through. If you are not a member and the page asks you to log in, membership is the likely gate.

If you are an employer rather than a job seeker, the same area is the natural place to check how postings are handled, but the homepage does not describe an employer submission process.

Using the FIND A MEMBER Directory

FIND A MEMBER is described on the site as "A link to our member directory." It appears both as a homepage heading and as a "Click here" link.

  • Purpose: Locate AKAPA members — useful for referrals, networking, or confirming whether a specific PA is a member.
  • Access: The directory is tied to the member area. The site does not state that it is open to the public, and because it sits alongside member-only functions (login, member benefits), you should expect it may require signing in.
  • What it is not: It is not a job board and does not list open positions. Use Job Listings for that.

If your goal is to reach a specific person rather than browse, the site also lists a general contact route: email [email protected], call or text 907-646-0588, or visit 111 West 9th Ave, Anchorage, AK.

Applying for the Jessica Stevens Memorial Scholarship

The Jessica Stevens Memorial Scholarship is listed under the Students section, alongside "AK PA Program," "Scholarships," and "Student Corner."

  • Who it is for: Students — it appears in the student-facing part of the site, next to the AK PA Program and scholarship listings.
  • How to apply: The homepage shows a "Scholarship Application" link in the Students area. Follow that to the application.
  • What to check before applying: The homepage does not publish eligibility rules, deadlines, or award amounts. Those details, if available, would be on the scholarship or application page itself, so read that page before starting.

Students also have a Student Corner and Student Forums for discussion, plus the AK PA Program link for program information. These are separate from the scholarship and are worth checking if you want peer or program context.

Common Snags

  • Login walls. The site has a "Log in" option and a member area. The homepage does not say which of these three resources are public, so if a link does not open, membership or a login is the first thing to check.
  • Two different "member" paths. "Join us" and "Member Benefits" are about becoming a member; "FIND A MEMBER" is about searching existing members. Do not confuse them.
  • Scholarship details are off-page. The homepage only names the scholarship and links the application. Eligibility and deadlines are not on the homepage, so do not assume them.
  • Jobs vs. events. The homepage also promotes the 2026 All-Alaska Medical Conference and recurring legislative update meetings. Those are events, not job postings — use the Job Listings link for employment.

For anything the site does not spell out — job posting access, directory visibility, scholarship criteria — the fastest route is the contact details above: [email protected] or 907-646-0588.
