The Member Advisory Committee (MAC) provides input and feedback to NCG staff on the NCG experience. This means suggestions on all programs, proposals, events, concepts and ideas.
Status and Terms
This is a standing committee that meets approximately six times per year, or as agreed upon by the members of the committee. MAC meetings are expected to take place by conference call or virtual meeting. The committee may occasionally hold meetings that are open to all co-op DRs or members of their staff. Terms are two years and it is recommended the committee members serve a maximum of three terms.
Committee Structure and Selection
Only designated representatives (DRs) can serve on the MAC.
The committee is made up of two DRs elected by the DRs from each corridor. Three additional DRs will be nominated by NCG management and appointed by vote of the rest of the MAC members.
NCG values diversity and inclusion; we welcome and encourage individuals from underrepresented groups to serve.
Election
Voting to elect corridor representatives to the Member Advisory Committee is held yearly.
