Where are the national officers elected?

The national officers for Jobs for America's Graduates (JAG) are elected during the Annual National Career Development Conference business session. This conference serves as a significant platform where representatives from various states come together to engage in professional development, leadership training, and collaboration. The business session is specifically structured to allow members to participate fully in the electoral process, where they can nominate and vote for candidates running for national office. This format ensures that the election is transparent, democratic, and inclusive, allowing for participation from designated delegates representing their states.

In contrast, state-level conferences focus on regional matters and issues pertinent to those specific areas, local chapter meetings are typically centered around grassroots activities and local initiatives, and online voting lacks the direct engagement and deliberative discussion that occurs during the conference.
