Committees
Member-based committees play an important role in achieving an effective and progressive NATA 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 NATA staff liaison, it provides constructive guidance and direction.
The committee’s ability to provide direct member involvement ensures that NATA truly represents its members. And the committee is both a classroom and a proving ground for developing better informed and more knowledgeable members who could in the future serve on the association’s board of directors.
The COMMITTEE MEMBER HANDBOOK is a compilation of information, ideas and observations about committees – their organization, operation and composition – gained from the board, committee members, staff liaisons and other active trade associations. To review the COMMITTEE MEMBER HANDBOOK, please click here. (Revised January 2010.)
Guests are welcome at NATA committee meetings. If you would like to attend an upcoming meeting, or if you are interested in becoming a member of one the NATA Committees, please contact that committee’s chairperson and staff liaison and express your interest.
