How often a subcommittee meets varies. The occurrence of meetings is set by the subcommittee chair. Contact the subcommittee chair for more information about specific meeting times.
Yes, absolutely!
The Governor’s Office appoints a staff member to be the liaison to ICSEW. The liaison is given time at every meeting to update the committee on the Governor’s priorities and receive feedback from the members. In addition, the ICSEW chair may schedule individual meetings with the liaison in order to communicate with the Governor’s Office about ICSEW priorities and activities. ICSEW may also formally communicate with the Governor’s Office through letters or memos.
