The Council for Professional Recognition

“The council does not have any committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body.”

“The form 990 was prepared by the outside accountants and reviewed by the president & ceo and board chair. A copy of the final 990 was sent to the full board prior to filing with the irs.”

“Each board member, officer and employee of the council signs an annual disclosure statement affirming that the person has received a copy of the policy, has read and understood the policy, has agreed to comply with the policy, and discloses any direct or indirect affiliations. Upon the disclosure of an affiliation by a director at a board meeting, the director leaves the meeting and the remaining board members discuss the potential implications of the affiliation. In the event that a conflict of interest is determined, the ceo decides appropriate response by the council.”

“The compensation of the president & ceo is approved by the board using data for similarly qualified persons in comparable positions as similarly positioned organizations. The deliberation and decision of the board's review is documented in the board minutes. The ceo reviews all other compensation levels. The last salary review took place in june 2013.”

“The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request.”
