Join a Committee
NCA encourages member involvement through participation on a number of governing boards and steering committees. Member-based committees play an important role in achieving an effective and progressive association and are a vital part of the association’s operations.
There are some basic purposes to utilizing a committee and advantages to be gained. Bringing together a cross section of member knowledge and experience, an effective committee can generate qualified group judgment and continuity of thinking. To the NCA staff liaison, it provides constructive guidance and direction. The committee’s ability to provide direct member involvement ensures that NCA truly represents its members.
Committee seats are limited, in some cases, and require approval by the committee chair. Terms of service are normally three years. Each committee usually meets at least one a year.
If you cannot serve on a committee but would like to be informed of the issues the committee is addressing, you can sign up as an Information Member.
We invite you and your key employees to become involved in NCA. As a dues paying member, you are encouraged to take full advantage of all that is available to you. Increase the value of your NCA membership and make a serious contribution to your industry.
