IBA’s Chairs of the Board of Governors are elected by the Board of Governors to three year terms. IBA Regional Governors oversee regional educational events, help support members in their regions, host the IBA National Conference, and provide IBA Headquarters with input and feedback about IBA’s policies and programs. All IBA’s Regional Governors hold the CBA designation. Local chapters are active in several states and metropolitan areas providing members with networking and educational opportunities. For more information about existing local chapters, or starting one in your area, contact your local Regional Governor or IBA Headquarters.
