APAI Officer Elections

APAI Officer Nominations Now Open Until March 20, 2025.

Vice-President and Secretary nominations will be accepted.

As the annual conference approaches, it is time to think about the upcoming officer nominations and elections. The official election will take place during the Annual Training Conference. Elected officers are announced at the Annual Business Meeting, which will be held on Tuesday, May 7, 2024. The business meeting will be held in conjunction with the Annual Awards Luncheon.

The APAI Constitution states that elected officers shall serve two-year terms and may not serve for more than two elected consecutive terms in the same office. The office of President and Treasurer shall become vacant on even numbered years, while the office of Vice-President and Secretary shall become vacant on odd numbered years (2025). Newly elected officers will assume their duties of office on July 1, 2025.

The APAI bylaws state,
“The Vice President shall, as directed by the President, be responsible for coordinating the activities of the Regional Vice Presidents and shall perform such other tasks as the President may assign”

The bylaws also state,
“The Secretary shall be responsible for taking and distributing all minutes from meetings of the Executive and the Annual Business meeting. The Secretary shall report all vote tabulations to the Executive Committee and Membership, unless otherwise noted in official Association documents. The Secretary shall serve as Executive Committee liaison to the Membership Committee and shall perform such other tasks as the President may assign.”

If you know of a co-worker or a professional colleague you have gotten to know over the years who would be a perfect fit, please contact the APAI Executive Director or anyone on the Executive Committee.

If you would like to nominate someone for either position or have an interest of your own, please reach out to:
