TAP Communications Chair
The position was created in Fall of 2010 to better meet the enhanced communication opportunities with the TAP website and Social Media. The Communications Chair supports GACCoM with the program’s presentation on the TAP website and on Facebook, supports and further develops marketing efforts to reach out to future potential TAP-YTL participants and helps developing the Alumni platform. This position will have to be confirmed by vote at each Alumni Reunion, starting with the 2012 Reunion. For the 2010-2011 term, the TAP and TAP-YTL Co-Presidents validated the creation of the position and the election of the current Chairperson.
