The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) held its semi-annual Board of Directors meeting earlier this month in Las Vegas. At the event, the Board of Directors elected the 2010-2011 Executive Committee. Paul Pearce, former IICRC president and the current chairman, was re-elected to serve another year.

“I’m humbled and honored to be elected for another year to serve the organization,” said Pearce. “It’s a very exciting time for the IICRC with multiple initiatives on the horizon and I’m very much looking forward to working again with our outstanding board and Executive Committee as we continue to help drive the industry forward.”

Other officers elected include: Darrell Paulson, Vice President; Mike Reed, Vice President; Rosemary Schooley, Secretary; Ed Hobbs Treasurer; David Jones, International Vice President; and, Barry Costa, Certification Council Chair. Dan Mabesoone, owner of Master Care Corporation in Norwich, Conn., was elected to serve as a member at large for the Board of Directors, along with current at large directors Dr. Al Luedtke, Cindy (Sayre) Boland, Patrick Moffitt, Barry Costa and David Jones. Additionally, the current 12 directors were re-elected to their positions.

In addition to electing new officers, the Board of Directors also reviewed the proposed strategic plan for the IICRC and approved a plan for the organization moving forward.

“The plan will serve as an overarching guide that will help lead us to where we want to be ... The plan outlines goals for various functions of the IICRC that we will continually return to as new efforts are launched to make sure we are on the right path,” said Pearce.

The next IICRC Board of Directors and Certification Council meetings are scheduled for April 11-13, 2011, in Clearwater, Fla. prior to the Connections Conference.
