Call for CMA Board nominations
The Canadian Museums Association’s Nominations Committee is inviting nominations for membership to the CMA Board of Directors.
As you may recall, the CMA recently modernized and adopted new bylaws. Among the changes in the bylaws — and related to our objective to create a more inclusive, representative and effective governance model — the number of positions on our Board was increased from 8 to 11.
We now have four (4) vacant positions to fill on our Board and we are particularly interested in candidates with the following backgrounds or expertise: Indigenous issues and research; business; finance and legal.
We ask that a cover letter and the individual’s CV be submitted to vvitali@museums.ca no later than March 5, 2021. The letter should include the following elements:
- Name of proposed individual
- Individual’s job title
- Location
- 250-word bio (maximum) describing their career
- Information about their involvement with the CMA
- Any special advocacy experience
At the next AGM in the spring, we plan to fill additional positions.
