The PPSA is an organization of administrative and technical staff who serve the teaching, research and business missions of the University. PPSA accomplishes its mission by providing a forum where staff can express their opinions; seminars and programs to broaden and expand staff's background and knowledge; representation on major University committees; and a supportive network to work toward achieving the University's goals and objectives and enhancing professional status of staff.
The following positions on the PPSA Executive Board will be available for the coming year:

After one year, the chair-elect automatically succeeds to the office of Chairperson.
- Vice-Chair Elect: The Vice-Chairperson records the proceedings of the Executive Committee and also functions as treasurer. After one year, the Vice-Chair elect automatically succeeds to the office of Vice-Chair.
