Executive Committee

The PCSI association is run by elected officers and an executive committee. Approximately, one-third of the members are elected each year. If you are interested in running for an elected position or as a committee member, please review the rules and requirements listed below. Please also note that you must be a member of the association in order to run for a position. During the 2012 Avignon conference, an election for President and three committee members were held. The President position was uncontested so we welcome Poul Erik Hansen from Denmark who stood for re-election back. We also had a tie for one executive committee member spot, so we gladly accepted both individuals, resulting in a total of four new people joining the Executive Committee. Their names are listed below. The next election will be held in Helsinki, Finland in September 2013.
