Past Chairpersons’ Advisory Group

The purpose of the group is to offer Past Chairpersons of IAEE the opportunity to participate as an advisory group for consideration of subjects on which they are asked to advise. It is IAEE’s position that the legacy the Past Chairpersons provide through their thought leadership, expertise and historical perspective are invaluable to the future of the association.

Who is eligible?

Past chairpersons, who are IAEE members in good standing, are eligible to belong to the Advisory Group. The Chairperson will be the Immediate Past Chairperson from the Board of Directors to allow for continuity. In addition, each year the Advisory Group will nominate a representative for a one-year non-voting Ex-officio position on the IAEE Board of Directors. The nominee must be presented to the nominating committee for approval through the nominating committee process.
