APPAM Policy Council

The APPAM Policy Council is the Association's board of directors. It currently consists of four elected cohorts serving staggered, four-year terms of office, the APPAM officers (ex officio voting), and the APPAM executive director and editor of JPAM (ex-officio non-voting). At least two of the persons elected in each cohort must be practitioners.

Since 2005, APPAM's individual members elect seven new persons every year to the Council and APPAM's institutional members elect a total of four persons to serve on the Council. The Policy Council is responsible for setting policy and strategy for the Association. In between meetings of the Policy Council, the Executive Committee (the officers, the executive director, and the editor of JPAM) is authorized to make tactical and implementation decisions for APPAM.

In addition to the Executive Committee, the members of the Policy Council are as follows.
