NACAA Futuring Committee 2005-2006

  
NACAA Futuring Committee Charge
 
The NACAA Futuring Committee was formed by NACAA President Glenn Rogers as an ongoing effort to evaluate our organization's future. The committee's charge was outlined in a letter of January 2005:
 
How or what should NACAA do to address:
 
Committee Membership
 
Members of the NACAA Futuring Committee were selected by President Rogers with the assistance of the NACAA Officers, Regional Directors and State Presidents. The goal was to have a mix of professionals with various backgrounds and disciplines, regional representation, years of experience, and other aspects of diversity that represent our membership. Committee member contact information is listed at the bottom on this page
 
Timeline
 
The committee will work over 18 months. A report draft will be prepared and presented to the NACAA Board prior to their Spring Board meeting in March/April 2006 for review and comment. The final report is to be presented in July 2006 at the AM/PIC in Cincinnati, OH.
 
An Opportunity for Input
 
The committee will solicit information and input from members, life members, non-members and others through a variety of methods.  We welcome your opinions and advice and ask that you look for future correspondence and requests from us. In the interim, please feel free to contact any of the Futuring Committee members with your ideas and concerns related to our charge.
