Elections for ISEV Board of Directors positions are held every two years. Positions are self-nominated with applications accepted during an open call period. Applicants are not required to be ISEV members; however, ISEV membership is required if elected.

Applications are reviewed in two phases: first Executive Officer candidates are finalized, followed by Member-at-Large candidates. Applications are considered by the ISEV Nominating Committee and current ISEV Executive Committee before being sent for a general member advisory vote. The ISEV Board of Directors reviews and approve all candidates before their final vote during the General Assembly, held during ISEV’s annual meeting.

Nominating Committee

The ISEV Nominating Committee is comprised of the most recent Past President not currently serving on the Executive Committee and the President-Elect, and three additional committee members, including one Early Career Professional representative, to be approved by the Executive Committee.
