It is recommended that the treasurer have a good understanding of finance and accounting, and the ability to synchronize ASM’s finances with its vision and strategy to make the best use of the Society’s resources. Prior experience in the volunteer leadership of ASM is also helpful. Once applications are received, the treasurer is nominated by a five-person Nominating Committee for Treasurer that will review candidates and present their nominee to the board for approval. This committee is convened to select a treasurer and is separate from the Nominating Committee for vice president and trustees. Although the treasurer is officially appointed for a one-year term, reappointment for multiple years is typical. Therefore, planning on a three-year term or longer is reasonable. For more information or to be considered for this position, contact Leslie Taylor. Applicants should submit a short letter explaining why they would like to serve as treasurer along with a resume and two to five letters of support to leslie.taylor@asminternational.org by February 7. 2025 Bradley Stoughton Award for Early Career Teachers Winner receives $3000.
