Call for 2009–2010 Candidates
ASCD needs enthusiastic leaders who will advance the association's goal of expanding its presence in the global education field. In 2010, the General Membership Election will fill positions for president-elect (one position), Board of Directors (two positions), and Leadership Council members-at-large (six positions).
The 2009–2010 Nominations Committee invites all members to self-select or encourage qualified individuals interested in being nominated for significant leadership positions within the organization to apply. The application deadline is January 31, 2010.
Furthermore, the Nominations Committee will also seek candidates from the Leadership Council to fill three positions on the Board of Directors. These candidates will be elected by Leadership Council members.
The Nominations Committee will interview nominees for president-elect and Board of Directors positions at ASCD's 2010 Annual Conference in San Antonio, Tex. The interviews will be scheduled on either Friday, March 5, or Saturday, March 6.
