Kindly look at the detailed eligibility requirements on the Nomination Form and in the EPIC Constitution

Please note that any eligible EPIC member may nominate multiple candidates for elections for the Board of Directors. The Nomination Form provides for multiple spaces to allow for multiple nominations. The total maximum number of nominations allowed is seven (7) per nominator, representing the seven (7) BOD positions. Also, please be advised that for the nominee to be placed on the ballot he/she must receive at least Two (2) nominations. The EPIC Election Committee will verify the nominator's membership status.

The EPIC Election Committee will verify whether the prospective nominee accepts or declines the nomination. All nominees accepting a nomination and agreeing to be placed on the election ballot shall be subject to a mandatory criminal and financial background check. Failing to comply with the background check and/or providing necessary information to complete the background check will result in an immediate disqualification and termination of the nomination for that nominee/candidate for the BOD.
