Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) - 2025-2026

Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) - 2025-2026

Description

According the ALAC ROPs

19.2 The ALAC shall name a Board Member Selection Process Committee (BMSPC) which shall oversee the entire selection process including the election culminating the process but excluding those responsibilities specifically retained by the ALAC or given to the Board Candidate Evaluation Committee. The BMSPC shall be led by a chair selected by the ALAC and one Member from each region selected by the RALO and ratified by the ALAC. For each region, one Alternate member will be selected by the RALO and ratified by the ALAC who can replace a Member from the same region who for whatever reason is not able to fully participate and such replacement will be at the sole discretion of the BMSPC Chair in accordance with BMSPC guidelines.

19.2.1 The BMSPC, among its other responsibilities, will ensure that there is adequate opportunity for the electorate to interact with the candidates.

19.2.2 The BMSPC Chair will take best efforts to make decisions by consensus, but has sole discretion to decide decisions of the BMSPC in the absence of consensus or when time does not permit consultation.

 

Please note that no member of the 2025-2026 BMSPC may submit an EoI for the position of the Board Director selected by At-Large.
