The Committee Recommendation Database on REALTOR.org is now open and accepting recommendations! Please read the following important information regarding the Committee Recommendation Process:
Re-appointment to Committees & Continuing Terms
A member currently serving on a committee, whose term expires in 2007 MUST submit a self-recommendation via the Committee Recommendation Database on REALTOR.org if he/she would like to be considered for service in 2007; members serving on committees are NOT automatically considered for re-appointment.
Members who have a continuing term that expires in 2008 or 2009 do not need to submit a recommendation to remain on the committee; they will remain until the term expires.
2008 Committee Recommendation Process
The deadline for submitting committee recommendations is May 25, 2007.
Using the database, you can recommend yourself or another suitable candidate for up to three (3) committee positions at a time. When submitting a recommendation you are required to include relevant comments that highlight the candidate's skills and qualifications for the position. All comments are confidential.
We encourage you to seek recommendations from colleagues with whom you have worked closely, in particular members of state and national leadership.
Follow these steps to access the Committee Recommendation Database*:
1. Log-on to REALTOR.org
2. In the left-hand blue side bar click on "NAR Governance"
3. Beneath that, select "Committees"
4. In the center screen choose "2008 Committee Recommendations – Reference Page"
5. Select "I. Submit a Committee Recommendation"
OR The link below may also be used to access the recommendation database directly on REALTOR.org
Have You Completed/Updated Your Expertise Profile?
NAR's Expertise Profile Database was designed to provide all levels of the REALTOR® family (including the Local, State and National Associations) with key information about you and your professional experience. The information that you will provide in this profile will be used as a resource in a variety of ways, including identification of members with certain expertise to serve on committees, working groups, presidential advisory groups; also, to respond to surveys about association issues, products, services etc.
Individuals interested in serving on NAR's committees are encouraged to create and/or update their expertise profiles. However, they are not required.
Please note: Completing an expertise profile is NOT the same as submitting a recommendation for yourself! If you wish to serve on a committee you still must submit a recommendation via the online Committee Recommendation Database on REALTOR.org.
Follow these steps to access the Expertise Profile page*:
1. Log-on to REALTOR.org
2. In the left-hand blue side bar click on "NAR Governance"
3. Beneath that, select "Committees"
4. In the center screen choose "Committee Recommendation Reference Information"
5. Select "II. Complete Your Expertise Profile"
6. Under "Create and Update Profiles" select "Create an expertise profile."
