When does the Chiropractic Board elect its officers?

The Chiropractic Board is structured to promote stability and continuity within its leadership. Electing officers at the first meeting during even-numbered years allows the board to establish its leadership for a significant term while aligning its governance with periodic reviews and updates to regulations and practices. This timing also coincides with various administrative processes that are part of the board's responsibilities, ensuring that incoming officers have a clear mandate as they begin their terms.

The choice of even-numbered years mirrors practices seen in other regulatory and governance bodies, allowing for consistent terms that can be synchronized with other relevant events or requirements within the professional landscape. This approach also avoids the disruptions that frequent elections might cause and enables newly elected officials to engage in strategic planning with knowledge of the board's long-term goals.
