SIG Officer Elections: Call for Nominations
It’s that time of year again when the SIG Officers begin their work on establishing a slate of candidates for the leadership of their Special Interest Groups. SIGs are led by member volunteers who coordinate year-round activities to support colleagues who use technology to advance education. SIG leaders develop and distribute member communications, facilitate networking online, and coordinate professional development activities.
Consider volunteering as a leader by nominating yourself or a colleague for an officer position.
Positions are open in the following SIGS:
The term of office for most positions is two years and begins in June 2009. More details about the nomination process, the open positions, and officer responsibilities are available at http://www.iste.org/sigs/elections. Nominations will be open Monday, January 5 through Monday, February 2, 2009.
