Duties include assisting ICVA in identifying NAVLE® item writers and participating in item and form review meetings. Terms for ADC members are three years, with the ability to serve up to three terms. The current opening to fill an unexpired term is in the area of Bovine-Beef.
Nominations must be received by September 1, 2025.
Please share this with individuals who may be interested in volunteering for the ICVA.
