Executive Advisory Board (EAB)
Although the EAB does not make decisions on matters that fall under the scope of the VCB, EOB, LFB, and SDB, it must ratify decisions of the EOB and SDB, and decisions of all four Boards that fall outside the scope of the Boards’ stated purpose and mission in order for the decisions to be acted upon by the Association. The EAB does have decision-making authority over matters pertaining to education and credentialing which fall outside the scope of the VCB and LFB. The EAB has the authority to appoint or establish various NACVA Committees and Task Forces, and has, with approval from the Board of Directors, the authority to define the purpose and mission of the Boards, when needed and justified, to better serve the changing and evolving needs of the Association. Further, the EAB may propose to the Board of Directors the creation of new Boards to serve specific functions or elimination of existing Boards to better serve the changing and evolving needs of the Association. The EAB takes part in strategic planning for the Association, working with NACVA’s Board of Directors, and provides creative and informative oversight and guidance to the VCB, EOB, LFB, and SDB.
