NOMINATIONS ARE BEING ACCEPTED FOR THE FOLLOWING POSITIONS:
Vice-President
Secretary-Treasurer
Director

NOMINATIONS PROCESS:
Nominations may be submitted in advance of the AGM or from the floor during the election portion of the meeting.

According to Bylaw Section 6.g, all nominees must be Corporate Members in good standing. A member, whose membership fees are due and unpaid or otherwise owes money to the Association is not in good standing.

TERM OF OFFICE:
Those elected to the Board of Directors at the 2016 AGM will hold those positions for two years; term of office to complete in 2018.

REQUIREMENTS OF A BOARD MEMBER:
Generally, the Board operates as a governance entity, meaning that it sets high level strategic direction as opposed to having a direct hand in the day-to-day activities of the operation. Directors may also be asked to sit on various committees to provide more direct guidance regarding key association strategic objectives.

Board Members are not paid. However, reasonable expenses are reimbursed for travel and meals when attending Board meetings or other sanctioned association business. The Board of Directors meets monthly via Skype or conference call, as well as a minimum of twice annually face-to-face.
