AER Election Committee

The AER Election Committee will inventory and prepare for the elections at the General Assembly by

  • Identifying the status of the members holding the current positions;
  • Identifying the competences and, if any, the formal requirements associated with the positions;
  • Survey suitable candidates among the AER members;
  • Call for nominations in accordance with AER Procedures.

The Election Committee will nominate candidates for the elections at the General Assembly by

  • List all nominees from the AER Members;
  • Nominate one candidate for each position.

If necessary, the Election Committee may nominate candidates of its own.
