Dear ETNIERS, Many of you joined Asia TEFL years ago and have since changed your email addresses. I have sent the email below to the email addresses that I have. I am posting it here in the hopes of reaching more embers. Please let me know if your email has changed since you joined. Thanks, Susan Feb 6, 2014 Dear members of Asia TEFL, Once in two years, members of ASIA TEFL are asked to elect a regional representative. The elections were to be delayed for technical reasons, but now the serving regional representatives have been asked to hold elections immediately and submit results by the end of February. I am therefore asking for nominations from among the members. Please feel free to nominate yourself (with a second, please) or a friend (with agreement from the nominee, please). I need to receive nominations no later than February 16th, 2014. After receipt of nominations, I will send the statements of all nominees to the member ship and ask for a vote. Until now, the duties of the representatives have mainly been to serve on the Executive Council (EC). The EC meets once a year at the Asia TEFL conference to make major decisions about the organization. (Note: representatives do not receive funding for airfare to attend the conference; they are exempt from conference fees and their hotel is covered for the duration of the conference.) In addition, there are discussions and decision-making by email throughout the year. In the future, the regional representatives will have additional duties which will include organization of dues collecting, based on the decision of the EC at the 2013 conference) All nominations should be sent to me: holzms@xxxxxxxxxxxx with a 300-500 word personal statement. Over the years many emails have changed. Please notify me if you have a different preferred email. With thanks, Susan Holzman EC Regional Representative for Israel ************************************** ** Join ETNI on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/31737970668/ ** ETNI Blog and Poll http://ask-etni.blogspot.co.il/ ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org ** post to ETNI List - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** help - ask@xxxxxxxx ***************************************
