The International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) has posted an announcement to alert its members, the Forum of Firms, international organizations, and the public about its Call for Nominations to IFAC Boards and Committees in 2011.
Both the Call for Nominations and a companion guide, Developing a Nominations Strategy, are designed to help IFAC find the best person for each available position on its boards and committees, while also achieving a gender, regional, and professional balance. These extensive publications contain strategic and practical advice for nominating organizations, allowing them to make better informed decisions in selecting their nominees and to understand what is expected of them.
Nominations may be submitted from January 15 to March 15, 2010, by sending the completed Candidate Information Form via email to nominations@ifac.org. This form, along with more information about the nominations process and the Help Sheet, which includes detailed information on filling out the form, can be downloaded from the Nominating Committee section of the IFAC website: www.ifac.org/NominatingCommittee.
If you have any questions, please contact Laura Buijs, Governance Manager, at laurabuijs@ifac.org.
