In assessing the nominees, we strongly urge you to align your evaluation with the specific skills and experiences that CurlON is seeking for the 2024-2026 Board.

Our focus for this recruitment cycle is to identify candidates who possess expertise in the following key areas:
- Financial literacy with accreditation in accounting, financial planning and operational controls
