2021/22 Board Nominations Process

This area will provide information and updates on the process for nominating and confirming the 2021/22 Board of Directors.

Expressions of Interest must be received by 12:00 pm on Tuesday, October 12.   
 
As outlined in Article 3 of our bylaws, only Chartered or Honorary Members are eligible for Board Positions with the exception of the position of Treasurer where financial expertise is preferred and other member types are eligible.
 

Positions open for the 2021/22 Term are:

     Directors at Large (one-two openings, two year term)


Time Commitment
The Board typically meets 4-6 times a year with approximately three of the meetings held in person at the CPHR Nova Scotia Training Room in Halifax. The balance are held by virtually.  Travel expenses for Directors travelling from other locations in NS are covered by the Association.  In-person meetings are usually scheduled for 3.5 hours and teleconference meetings 1.5 hours maximum. Meetings are scheduled for the year at the beginning of each Board Term.  
Preparation time is required in advance of each meeting to review and consider the materials. That time commitment varies depending on the topics discussed however is typically very manageable. The time commitment for the positions of President and Treasurer are higher as a result of the additional responsibilities for those positions outside of the regular Board Meetings. 

SELF-DECLARING. Because you count!

Achieving a diverse board has been identified as an organizational need, and will be applied in the selection process. Consequently, nominations who have indicated on their Expression of Interest that they are a member of a designated Employment Equity group will be considered in priority.

By self-declaring in your application, you help create a board that is diverse, inclusive and representative of identities, cultures, perspectives and experiences that make up Canada.
