How often are RiskSIG elections held?
They are held very year, at our Annual Symposium in the fall normally September/October. All RiskSIG officers serve for two years; approximately half of the positions are elected in a given year. The chairman, director of public relations, technical director, and the directors of Region II and III are elected in odd-numbered years; the president, vice president of administration, and the directors of Regions I, IV, and V are elected in even-numbered years. In the event of a resignation before the end of an officer’s normal term, the vacancy is filled by appointment by the RiskSIG Board of Directors. That position may then be put up for election at the next available election cycle, regardless of the normal election cycle.
