General Pages

TAC maintains a network of representatives for each recognized geographic area, worldwide, where there are members. These Area Representatives serve as a liaison between the Executive and the membership at large. At regular intervals throughout the year, the Area Reps’ Coordinator, who is a member of the Executive, sends updates on TAC activities to the Area Representatives. They then forward these reports to the TAC members in their respective areas. A member who wishes to bring something to the attention of the Executive may do so through the link between the Area Representative and the Coordinator.

A meeting of Area Representatives is held each year in conjunction with the TAC Annual General Meeting. Representatives are encouraged to attend the meetings and to submit agenda items for discussion.
