State Rules
State rules on board composition (page 9-16, CEO Membership Guide (PDF)) detail the specifics on manning in order to create boards with a diverse outlook to address all aspects of the job sector. Board training requirements for each member ensure each person is prepared as a valuable member of the board.
Board Structure
The CVWDB organization is composed of an executive committee and supporting committees as determined by the board. The board executive committee is composed of a chairman, vice chairman, and secretary-treasurer and supplemented by the committee chairs.
