Officers

The IASCL's 6 Officers constitute its Board, which itself forms part of the Executive Committee. The Board runs our Association on a "daily" basis. All Officers (except the Assistant Secretary) are IASCL members that were nominated by the elected members of the Executive Committee and whose nominations were ratified by the membership. You can find an overview of the past IASCL Boards, places where our Congresses have been held, Congress main organizers, and our newsletter editors over the years here.

Call for Officer Nominations

The IASCL Nominating & Appointing Committee invites IASCL Members to submit nominations for IASCL Officers in accordance with the Association’s Governing Statute. In keeping with its international focus, the IASCL has a policy of seeking geographical balance in representation across officer positions. We are seeking nominations for the positions of:

  • IASCL President (three-year term: 2027-2030)

  • IASCL Vice President (three-year term: 2027-2030)  

  • IASCL Treasurer (six-year term: 2027-2033)

These positions will be effective as of the next IASCL meeting at the 2027 Congress. Nominations are being called a year earlier so that newly elected officers shadow the current officers for one year before their election takes effect. Thus, newly elected officers will start shadowing in July 2026 and be in their effective position starting July 2027.

 How to Nominate

Nominations for either of these positions must be communicated in writing via email to elena(dot)babatsouli(at)louisiana(dot)edu no later than January 25, 2025. Nominations MUST include:

  • Title of the office for which you are nominating someone

  • Email address of the nominee

  • Country in which that person is located

  • A brief statement of his/her qualifications for office

  • Evidence of his/her agreement (signature or email correspondence)

  • Signature/details of the nominator who must be or become an IASCL member
