Governance
The IICRC is managed by its board of directors, which is comprised of 15 industry leaders elected by the IICRC’s shareholders. The board of directors’ function is to represent the various interests of the registrants while leading the direction of the organization. The board of directors meets four times per year and is tasked with the responsibility of helping shape future policies of the organization and uphold the standards that help shape the industry. Additionally, directors must be compliant with the IICRC organizational documents, ethics and conflict of interest and confidentiality policies, and all other regulations and policies of the IICRC. The executive committee is the officers of the organization and is made up of a chairman, first vice president, second vice president, international vice president, treasurer, secretary, certification council chairman and the past chairman. At the yearly fall board meeting, these positions are elected by the board of directors for one-year terms in office. The executive committee helps run the day-to-day operations of the organization and, together with the board, represent the interests of all registrants. Each major decision made within the organization is brought before both the executive committee and the board of directors. The CEO and president of the IICRC reports to the IICRC board of directors and its chairman. Working with the board, the president actively provides overall leadership, determines direction, and helps set policy for the IICRC. Additionally, the president works with the IICRC’s management team as it carries out day-to-day operations.
