Board of Directors

The NCARB Board of Directors is a volunteer board of 12 architects, one public member, and one executive from a state board. Each region selects regional directors, Member Board Executives select the MBE director, and the public director is nominated by Member Boards and selected by the Board. Officers are elected each June at the Annual Meeting and Conference by our Member Boards. All terms begin on July 1 and end on June 30 each year.
