SEA Committees
The Board shall have three Standing Committees and may establish other committees as necessary identified below additional Standing. Each Standing Committee will maintain minutes and report their activities to the Board on a regular basis.
Each committee is charged with specific deliverables tied to both the overall strategic plan objectives and the committee charter.
Members are welcomed and encouraged to apply to join a committee by contacting the Committee Chair. Serving on a committee is rewarding in many ways, including making a positive contribution to your peers, the SES profession and the association.
