Completing the Nomination Form
Any individual willing to participate and fulfill the obligations of board service may self-nominate by completing and submitting the nomination form by midnight on May 18, 2024. The nominee does not need to be a member at the time of nomination but will be expected to become a member if approved. Each nominee is expected to complete the online form so that the nominating committee may consider the credentials of all candidates individually and comparatively. If you have questions about the form or the nomination process, please contact nominations [at] jacksonville.aiga.org.
The nomination form is designed to help the nominee prepare and present their qualifications consistently and assures that the committee has the same information on all candidates.
The Nominations Committee will review applications through May 31, 2024, to fill the open seats on the board of directors for a two-year term beginning July 2024. The Committee will then recommend a single candidate for each open position to the board. AIGA Jacksonville members will then vote on the board slate to ratify the board.
We thank you in advance for your interest in joining the AIGA Jacksonville board.
