Nominations and Elections

Our Nominations and Elections process for the CAEYC Governing Board is a year-round process. There are many critical steps to be taken to find ideal candidates to put on the ballot for each position. This year we are in need of candidates for the Secretary and President-Elect positions. Volunteering for the CAEYC Governing Board is a decision of great commitment of time and activity; and it is greatly valued. If you know anyone who would be a strong candidate for these positions, please contact the CAEYC office as soon as possible so we can contact them and begin conversations—making a nomination does not commit the person to applying for the position, however, it gives them and the CAEYC Governing Board the opportunity to talk about it.

Eligibility requirements for both positions include being an active member of NAEYC/CAEYC, participation on a CAEYC Committee and served as a CAEYC Governing Board member in the past five years.

The Secretary position is for two years, July 1, 2017-June 30, 2019 and involves participation in CAEYC Governing Board meetings and teleconferences as well as CAEYC events when possible. The Secretary is responsible for taking minutes at the meetings and written communications from CAEYC. The Secretary also coordinates with the CAEYC staff to gather submissions for electronic and print publications.

The President-Elect position is for two years, July 1, 2017-June 30, 2019, however, ascends to a two-year term as President and then a two-year term as Past President. As President-Elect there is the opportunity to shadow the President, gaining insight and mentoring for stepping into the President position. President-Elect also chairs the Nominations & Elections Committee for identifying candidates for Governing Board positions.
