Elections: Call for Presidential Candidates – CLOSED

Hi members,

I’d like to welcome our election committee members who will facilitate our 2020 election process: Rizwan Kalim, Jeff Clark, Ferris Adi, Raphael Adeyemo, Sean Webb, and myself Victoria Granova, as Chapter President, for guidance and oversight only.

We are having an election for the role of President for the period of April 15 to December 31, 2020. 

Note: As the Chapter currently operates on a calendar year, it will be a short year in 2020. Start date is approximate, contingent on the timely conclusion of the election process. 

Role of President: Lead the (ISC)² Toronto Chapter by setting a strategic direction for the Chapter, building a competent and passionate Board team, creating sustainable partnerships, and empowering the Board to fulfill Chapter goals. The President will keep the membership informed about Chapter plans and activities and preside at all meetings.
