Each year International ACAC elects members to the Executive Board, in accordance
with our association bylaws. The Election process consists of three stages:

 

In any given year there will be a different number of Vice President (VP) and Delegate to the NACAC Assembly positions open for election, depending on how many currently serving Board Members terms are expiring. Board members may also choose to run for a second term. The volunteer committee that is responsible for coordinating this process is the Governance & Nominating Committee.

Important Note: The Executive Board voted to delay elections for the Delegate to the NACAC Assembly open positions (currently 2).  NACAC is reviewing the role of their Assembly and the Delegate responsibilities. We will be adjusting the Delegate position based upon the Ad Hoc Committee's recommendations due to be released late February 2022.  We will hold a special election for the open Delegate positions once the role is determined. The Delegate election will be completed by May 30, 2022.

Should financing travel to Executive Board meetings become a barrier to service, on an as-needed basis International ACAC will supplement the contribution. However, this only occurs when the Executive Board members institution, organization, or company clearly demonstrates that it does not have the financial resources to contribute towards the cost of attendance.
