Candidates must submit a formal request for IMGS endorsement, along with their curriculum vitae, letter of nomination from their sponsoring organization and questionnaire on current IMG issues. You may also submit a photo, but it is not mandatory.
Candidates endorsed through this process may subsequently include the IMGS endorsement on brochures and other election-related promotional materials.
Submit your application for endorsement (DOC, members only) by Oct. 15, 2023. IMGS staff will contact the candidates for an interview after application submission. For questions contact IMGS at [email protected].
