Organization of IAARC
IAARC is a not-for-profit-organization (NPO) that uses its membership dues to develop services for, and facilitate and maintain communication between its members. IAARC is managed by its board whose directors and presidency continually change. The dynamic nature of the Association ensures that fresh ideas are brought into the organization whilst benefiting from the experience of others.
The organizational structure of IAARC Board of Directors (BOD) is:
The Board of Directors (BOD) meets annually during the ISARC symposium and has some virtual meetings throughout the remainder of the year. The members of IAARC’s Executive Committee are the President, the Vice-Presidents, the Past President, the General Secretary, and the Treasurer. Their activities involve: take responsibility for the association; approach new members; initiate and prepare board meetings; create reports for the annual BOD-meeting, i.e. membership status, financial statement and the budget for the coming years. IAARC awards Honorary Lifetime Board of Directors Membership to distinguished individuals who have demonstrated outstanding leadership, service, and impact within the association and our broader community. The full criteria are available in the IAARC Honorary Lifetime Membership document here. To nominate a colleague, please contact the IAARC General Secretary. The constitution of IAARC can be found here.
