Board of Directors
NACAC is governed by a Board of Directors, experts elected by eligible voting members of NACAC. The Board of Directors, led by the Executive Committee of the board, has full power, direction, and authority over the affairs of the Association.
The board is advised by professionals who serve on a NACAC committee of the board, a national standing or special committee, commission, or task force appointed by the members of the board, to support well-informed and strategic decision-making.
In November 2021, the board agreed to its Board Goals and Priorities for 2021-22.
