New in 2017 - Conference Code of Conduct: Statement of Expectations
At the 2016 UBCM Convention, delegates endorsed resolution B103 asking UBCM to implement a conference code of conduct. As a first step for 2017, the Executive has issued a
Statement of Expectations
for delegates and conference participants. The conference code of conduct will be fully implemented in 2018 when a formal process for reporting complaints to an independent mediator will be established. The mediator will be charged with investigating and dealing with all complaints in an expeditious manner. While it is our hope that the mediator's services will not be required, the UBCM Executive wanted to advise members that it has acted on the memberships' direction.
