This position is open to all corporate members who have served at least two consecutive years on the General Assembly or the Council in the last five years.
The Junior Vice-President is elected by the entire corporate membership. The Junior Vice-President becomes the Senior Vice-President and eventually the President, so in voting for the JVP for 2011 you are choosing the president for 2013.

Executive Board
The RTPI is managed by a Board of Trustees known as the Executive Board. The Executive Board has 15 trustees who have ultimate responsibility for the affairs of the Institute.
The elections for Executive Board members are staggered over different years to ensure that there is continuity in the Board membership. This year three corporate member positions are due for re-election, which are open to any corporate member and are elected by the General Assembly.
