Regional Directors
Fourteen ISTA regional directors represent the seven ISTA regions. According to ISTA bylaws, all ISTA voting members elect one director from each region each year. Directors are elected for a two year term and may serve only 2 consecutive terms in an office. Directors with an "a" following their term are in their first term; those with a "b" are in their second term. The ISTA Nominations & Elections Committee, chaired by the ISTA past-president and composed of the seven most recently elected directors, encourages qualified members to run for office.
