Nomination Requirements

At the CCAI Board of Directors meeting held at the July 1997 Training Seminar in San Luis Obispo, the following criteria were identified as “The Minimum Qualifications to be a Board Member for CCAI.” 

  1. CCAI member in good standing for a minimum of five years.
  2. Attendance at six CCAI semi-annual training seminars.
  3. CCAI Committee membership or other measurable contribution to the organization.
  4. Demonstrated ability to run CCAI, which is a non-profit organization with a large budget and over one thousand active members.
  5. Active participation in CCAI Roundtables.
  6. Written approval from your employing agency or company.

 

CCAI Board members are nominated by the CCAI Nominating Committee, which is appointed by the standing president from active past-presidents.  All members meeting the above minimum qualifications will be considered, but it is your responsibility to alert the committee of your desire to be considered.  The officers of CCAI are nominated from a list of qualified Board of Directors.  Although nominated and approved by the Board, these Officers and Board of Directors are elected by the members at the annual General Membership Meeting.

As the Officers move through the chairs and board members fulfill their term of office, positions become available on the board, similar to the train that makes routine scheduled stops to pick up fuel or passengers.  Positions on the CCAI Board of Directors also may become available through non-scheduled stops such as transfers, resignations, promotions, or reassignments of officers or Board members.  Get on board and get involved!  Let a CCAI officer, Board member, Committee Chairperson, Nominating Committee member or ex-officio know of your interest.

An Ex-Officio is an appointment, non-voting position on the CCAI Board that is instrumental to the function of the organization.  Committee chairpersons and other positions like the financial committee are ex-officios.
