Elected Officer Nominations & Elections

Consider being a candidate for an elected office in APPA, “Leadership in Educational Facilities”. Your future contribution to APPA will be an invaluable benefit for our members and ensure APPA is the “association of choice” for educational facilities professionals. As an elected officer, not only do you give back to the association and the facilities profession it serves, you will gain enormous leadership skills and develop yourself professionally in very meaningful ways.

A strong and steady leadership is essential for an association to remain vital and relevant in these ever-changing tumultuous times. Engaged, committed members are essential to guide APPA and the facilities profession toward a bright and productive future. Engaged and committed volunteer
leadership and service coupled with a dedicated professional staff ensures a vibrant future for APPA.

We are opening up the governance structure and process to increase communication and understanding of the service and time commitment. The perception is that serving APPA as an elected officer takes too much time away from the office. It does require a personal commitment of time and energy. Past elected officers will tell you the personal rewards and professional benefits outweigh the costs of engagement and the time expended.

Elected Officer Image

There are five (5) elected officer leadership positions available. Three (3) positions are open each year to ensure proper and regular rotation of the board’s elected officers each year. Consider nominating yourself or others for the one that best matches your passion and areas of expertise.

All applications for election are due no later than December 15, 2008.
