21 Module Outline: Officers and Elections Overview After completing this module, learners will be able to: a. Explain the process for electing chapter officers b. Describe the duties of each officer c. Locate additional resources about electing and training chapter officers Key Points 1. Electing officers for a SkillsUSA chapter is essential for the success of a local organization. a. Officers guide local SkillsUSA members. b. The personal growth of student officers contributes exponentially to the growth of the chapter. c. Officers assume a great deal of responsibility, which allows the advisor to be a guide rather than the focal point of the chapter. 21

22 2. The steps to establish a quality chapter officer team are simple! a. Follow a step-by-step process to elect the officers. b. Ensure that all candidates understand the officer roles. c. Provide training for newly elected officers. 3. The officer election process takes preparation, effort and follow- through. a. Form an election committee design the election process. i. A committee is able to focus on developing an election process that is representative of the entire chapter’s desires. ii. The committee is a group of students who volunteer, apply, or are hand- picked by the advisor to elect the officer team. iii. One committee member serves as a chairperson, and all contribute to determining guidelines and a calendar of events for the election process. iv. Members of the election committee may still run for a chapter office. 4. Determine which offices should be part of the chapter. a. There are six suggested offices; however, local chapters should consider the number that is adequate given the size and scope locally. In some cases that number may be more or less than six 22

23  b. Items to consider include: How many members will be represented? Will each school program have an officer team, or will there be one officer team for the entire school? Will the team be representative of all programs? What structure do members desire to have? Is it in line with the chapter constitution and by-laws?

24 Key Points Continued c. All candidates campaign for their desired offices. i. Campaigning provides a great opportunity for leadership and social skill development. ii. Procedures must be fair for all candidates. iii. Establish rules and guidelines that all candidates may follow. This may include implementing a spending limit for campaign materials and/or including speeches as part of the campaign. Additional guidelines may include maintaining a specific GPA or proper behavior in school. d. Hold elections. i. All chapter members are eligible to vote during the elections. ii. The election committee determines the most appropriate balloting procedure. iii. Election should immediately follow the close of the campaign. 24

25 e. Install officers. i. After election results are determined, install officers. You may use the long or short version of the installation ceremony listed in the leadership handbook. ii. Choose a time and location appropriate for the members and families who will attend, arrange for public coverage of the event, and ensure that all officers wear official dress to the installation. f. Evaluate the election process. i. Evaluation of all aspects of the election process help to determine what did and did not go well. ii. Make changes for the next year’s election process based on the results of the evaluation. 25

26 4. Once the election procedure has been established, ensure that the candidates fully understand the duties of the office for which they desire to campaign. a. In general, officers should possess the following attributes: i. Professional actions and appearance ii. Proper etiquette iii.
