The ISTD is seeking nominations from eligible members to join the following Faculty Committees:

Faculty Committees play an important role in supporting the development of their genres, helping to inform syllabus development, academic initiatives and member engagement activities. Serving on a committee provides an opportunity to contribute your expertise, collaborate with fellow professionals and represent the views of your faculty's membership.
