Nominations and Elections
1. Who is eligible to vote?
Each PTC member (corporate, non-profit, individual) is entitled to ONE (1) vote. The company’s Primary, Alternate or PR representative will receive the election notice. The first representative that votes is accepted and blocks any other vote.
2. How are the representatives designated for each member company?
Each member company designates a Primary, Alternate or PR representative. Typically, these representatives are assigned upon setting up the company membership, but changes can be made when the company roster is approved each year, or on an ad-hoc basis by emailing membership@ptc.org.
3. Can a company have more than one representative on the AC? On the BG? On both?
A company may have one representative on the AC and one on the BG at the same time. They cannot have two or more on the AC, nor on the BG at one time.
4. Can a company and their subsidiary be on the AC or BG at the same time?
Yes, ONLY if they both are separate members. If both the main company and subsidiary is one membership, there can only be one representative.
5. Can a representative run for both the AC and BG at once?
No, they must choose between one or the other. They cannot be on the final AC and BG ballot for both.
6. How does one determine which region and category to represent?
The category is determined by the type of membership you have (for-profit, non-profit, individual, etc.) The region can be determined by many factors. 1) where your company is incorporated; 2) where you pay taxes; and 3) the location of your brick and mortar office building, in which you work.
7. Can a person running for election be part of the Succession Planning Committee?
Yes. They can help with the early logistics. Once the nominations, elections and representatives are discussed, they can no longer be a party to any information. They will be recused from all further meetings until after the election process is completed.
If/When Elected
1. Is an AC or BG member expected to be at each meeting?
Yes, the member is expected to be at each meeting. If one cannot attend, contact the secretariat to give his/her regrets.
2. Can I have a substitute represent me?
You must be present yourself or wait to receive a summary of the notes.
The eighth annual PTC 5K Charity Run/Walk, held during PTC’25, set a new participation record, making this year’s event our biggest yet. A huge thank you to everyone who participated, cheered from the sidelines, and volunteered to make it a success. Additionally, we’d like to thank Console Connect for their sponsorship, helping us turn every step into meaningful support for Make-A-Wish Hawaii.
