Nominations needed for the 2021 ANS election
Each year, ANS leaders are nominated and elected from among the dedicated nuclear technology professionals that make up the Society’s membership. Now is your chance to nominate candidates to run in the 2021 ANS national election for the offices of vice president/president-elect and treasurer and for five positions on the ANS Board of Directors. All terms will begin in June 2021.
The ANS Standards Committee uses "ANS Collaborate" as an online collaboration tool. Each standards working group, subcommittee, consensus committee, special committee, and the Standards Board has its own password-protected site for document storage, messaging and notifications, balloting, and comment management to promote a more organized, efficient development of standards. Individuals with questions about ANS Collaborate for standards work may contact standards@ans.org.
Standards Committee members that have an established Collaborate account may access the site.
