IBPSA-USA is now accepting applications for the annual Board of Directors election for the 2023-2025 term.
The Board of Directors provides a vital link to the communities and organizations that IBPSA-USA serves, and these voices are critical to the future of the organization. It is important that the IBPSA-USA Board of Directors be composed of qualified members who are dedicated to the organization’s mission and have a thorough understanding of the duties of the Board. If you have these characteristics, IBPSA-USA encourages you to stand for election.
Board members serve a two-year term with staggered terms to bring fresh voices to the Board every year. There are seven Director positions open for this election. Additionally, due to a Board member’s resignation, there will be a single one-year term position for the candidate with the 8th highest vote total.
In addition, we elect a Student Director who can directly represent and engage with the student community of IBPSA-USA, which serves a one-year term. Only student members can vote for the Student Director position.
A description of the Director’s role can be found here and of the Student Director’s role here. All persons interested in serving on the board must submit an application and their resume or CV by December 2, 2022:
Applicants must be current IBPSA-USA members. If you are unsure of your membership status, contact ops@ibpsa.us. Not a member? Sign-up here.
