Board
Members
The
Board is an independent State agency composed of seven members appointed by
the Governor for three-year terms. Five of the members must be holders of
valid and unrevoked North Carolina CPA certificates as issued by the Board in
accordance with the NC General Statutes. The remaining two members, who
cannot be CPAs, represent the interest of the public at large. The members of
the Board annually elect a President, Vice President, and
Secretary-Treasurer. Board members are not paid a salary for serving on the Board
but receive a per diem and are reimbursed for travel expenses
associated with the performance of Board duties.
Board
Committees
The
Board President appoints a Personnel Committee, a Professional Standards
Committee, and a Professional Education & Applications Committee.
Additional committees or task forces may be appointed to study various
matters and report to the full Board as needed.
