Updated: RAPS Calls for Board Nominations Deadline Extended to 1 June

RAPS has opened the nomination process for four open positions on its board of directors for the 2017–19 term. Regulatory leaders are needed to serve as president-elect, treasurer and directors (two open positions). Nominations and supporting materials, including resume or curriculum vitae (CV) and two letters of support, must be submitted to RAPS by 1 June 2016. Nominees must be active RAPS members in good standing.

“This is a great opportunity to lead the premier global organization for regulatory professionals and to help shape the future of the regulatory profession,” said Nominating Committee Chair Rainer Voelksen in a letter to members. “Service on the RAPS board of directors is a rewarding experience—professionally and personally—providing a unique opportunity to serve and advance the global regulatory profession and advance the value and role of RAPS around the globe.”

To submit a nomination, review the board of directors position descriptions and duties. Download the Microsoft Word nomination form, and submit the completed form to RAPS at [email protected] along with your abbreviated resume or CV. You also must secure at least two letters in support of your nomination. Support letters may be sent separately, but they must be received by RAPS at the above email address by 1 June.

The Nominating Committee will review nominations of qualified individuals in July, and the slate of board candidates is scheduled to be announced 29 July. For more information, visit the board of directors nomination process page.
