Call for Board of Directors Nominations

Nominations for Board of Directors 2024-2027 is now open.

Dear JPS Members, 

 The Jean Piaget Society Nominating Committee requests you to nominate persons who might serve as members of our Board of Directors for the term of 2024-2027.  

 The 2021-2024 cohort will be rotating off the Board in June 2024. The Nominating Committee is charged with creating a ballot of replacements for the Board to vote on. We seek nominees who have been active in the Society and/or who are scholars in areas of special concern to the Society. We are committed to diversifying and internationalizing our Board and interested in nominees from underrepresented groups to establish reasonable balance across areas of interest and other demographic considerations. We are also looking for nominees who have skills or expertise in areas of social media, office IT, and outreach.  

Submit your nominations online or by email September 15, 2023. 

Nomination Criteria

The following are some suggested considerations, but not all nominees need to be considered in the same way. Please select or add what you think will strengthen your nomination. 

  • Nominee’s relevant prior professional service; 
  • Prior participation in JPS and contribution to its publications and development; 
  • Key intellectual contributions to the field; 
  • Diverse representations the candidate would bring to the Board; 
  • Skills in areas of social media, office IT, and outreach.
