Become a Candidate

Get Involved

Becoming a candidate is easy!

Here’s what you’ll need to do:

  1. You must be nominated for a specific position; and
  2. You must be nominated by two individual practising members of NANB.

Board Meetings

You must check with your employer at the time of your nomination to ensure permission is granted for the necessary absences during scheduled meetings and copy your employers support to NANB.

Board members participate in Board meetings held four times a year (January, March, June and September). Board meetings are usually no more than two days in length. Directors must attend a minimum of three meetings per year. Other committee meetings are held periodically throughout the year. Board directors are expected to participate on specific NANB committees such as Finance, Executive or other working groups.

Director Terms

All elected Directors serve a three-year mandate and may re-offer for an additional three year term. The President and President-elect hold two year terms. With the exception of the President-elect, there is no automatic progression from one office to another.

Expenses

NANB will cover your travel and accommodation expenses, with a daily meal allowance provided. In addition, salary replacement is available to your employer if you must be replaced while on NANB business.

We recommend that nominees contact NANB (nanb@nanb.nb.ca) to receive a copy of the Director role description and nomination forms.
