Together with the Executive Committee, the Board is responsible for guiding and directing the affairs of the Society. By serving as a Board member, you provide valuable help in advising, discussing, and approving major organizational decisions. The discussions and the approval (if needed) take place primarily via email and/or online meetings. In addition, the Board members are expected to attend the Board meeting and the General Assembly during the SABE annual conference.
