Formalization may include joint bylaws which describe policies or budget allocation as an internal stakeholder partnership. Additional board seats may be approved by the executive board where growth demands.

Executive Authorizations

All boards are internal boards operating under the explicit permission of the association. Boards serve either a global trade or education mission. Board candidates maintain seats based on performance reviews or peer elections. Board partners are considered volunteers and as such are not payroll employed, and have no compensation rights – unless an explicit partner agreement is authorized. Each two year cycle partner agreements must be reinitiated.
