About NASIG

Electronic Communications Committee

Charge
The purpose of the Electronic Communications Committee is:

• to encourage and enable the use of electronic communications throughout the organization -- as a tool for conducting organizational business, as a means of informing the membership about the activities of the organization and as a forum for member communication.
• to educate and inform the membership in regard to the use and potential of electronic communications media in general, and NASIG website, listservs, and social media forums in particular.
• to coordinate the planning, development, implementation and maintenance of NASIG electronic communication resources.

To achieve these goals, members of the committee maintain electronic lists for the entire organization and for individual committees, coordinate mounting and maintaining information on the NASIG web site and social media profiles, and consider options for implementing new electronic services.

The committee works with the Database & Directory Committee to coordinate membership and committee information and with the Program Planning Committee, and the Continuing Education Committee to identify programs and speakers of interest, and with various NASIG committees to assist with their web publishing needs.

If you have any questions you may email the Electronic Communications Committee.
