Associate Audit Committee Member Job Description for Nonprofits

An Associate Audit Committee Member Program (Program) is an invaluable asset for the Organization. Associate Members are not full Committee Members, yet they can play a highly influential and persuasive role on the Committee. 
The Program strengthens the Committee’s renewal process by affording Associate Members valuable exposure and on-the-job training. In this way, the Committee can give an Associate Member an opportunity to learn about the Organization and the Committee and become thoroughly oriented to “hit the ground running,” should they ultimately join the Committee as a full Committee Member. It also allows the Organization to confirm that the Associate Member will make a good Committee Member before they are nominated or appointed for full Committee membership.
