ELATE Commissions

The ELATE Commissions are provisional groups focused on specific tasks related to one particular issue, question or topic. The ELATE Commissions meet at each 荔枝视频 Convention in the time slot designated for them. They are, in every sense, open groups that serve as welcoming gateways for those interested in issues important to other ELATE members and for those interested in forming stronger connections with ELATE. All 荔枝视频 and ELATE members are welcome to join the commission of their choice and are free to move from one commission to another. While ELATE membership is not a requirement of participation in a ELATE Commission, it is encouraged.

Each commission names a chair (or co-chairs) for a two-year term; the chair (or co-chairs) are聽ELATE members. The Chair is responsible for leading the annual meeting at the 荔枝视频 Conference and submitting an annual report to the聽ELATE Executive Committee. New commissions can be formed by interested parties by submitting a written proposal to the聽ELATE Executive Committee. Existing commissions can be dissolved by the members or by an action of the聽ELATE Executive Committee. Specific guidelines for creating and dissolving commissions are outlined at the link below.

ELATE has established guidelines for commission leaders on best practices for holding commission chair elections and rotation of leadership.
