Candidates may declare their intent to run for ISMA office before elections during the 177th Annual Convention on Sept. 25-27. 

ISMA officers elected at Convention include the president-elect, speaker, vice speaker, treasurer and assistant treasurer. These positions serve one-year terms. The president-elect becomes president a year after their election. 

AMA delegates and alternate delegates, who serve two-year terms and are elected on a staggered basis, will also be elected during Convention. 

A candidate for ISMA office must have been an active ISMA member for the past two years to be eligible. Only those who submit the form at www.ismanet.org/CandidateForm will be announced in ISMA publications. A candidate for the AMA House of Delegates must be a current, active member of the AMA and the ISMA. Candidates are encouraged to submit a current professional headshot photo.

Nominations may be made at any House of Delegates session and remain open until elections occur at Convention. Officers serve until their successor is installed.
