TOUR GUIDELINES FOR FCCFA FORUMS/DELEGATIONS TO CHINA
REVISED JUNE 8, 2014 FOR FORUM 2014




INVITATIONS AND FCCFA RESPONSE

1. A Tour Director will be appointed from the Board of Directors to direct Inbound and Outbound federation delegations or tours.

2. CPAFFC is encouraged to invite delegation tours from Canada. There are currently six member Associations (Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary, Victoria and Lower Mainland). Associations can nominate delegates, based on CPAFFC’s invitation requirements.

3. FCCFA will respond to Forum invitations by sending 10 delegates

LEADERSHIP

4. FCCFA president will lead the delegation.

5. In addition to the leader, FCCFA will attempt to send one delegate from each of six current chapters, with two from a chapter with over 100 members. Each chapter will select the most appropriate person(s) to represent them.

6. The Federation President should negotiate the approximate departure date and generalitinerary with CPAFFC prior to notifying member Associations, so that potential delegates have a good idea of tour dates and itinerary before accepting.

7. A Tour Administrator, should be appointed from delegates to assist the Tour Leader. The Tour Administrator may handle the financial arrangements or delegate it to another tour member, as agreed in advance with the Tour Leader

DELEGATE SELECTION

8. On receipt of delegation tour information, each member Association will appoint delegate/s and possibly an alternative. Associations will make every effort to satisfy any CPAFFC’s stipulation for the desired type of delegates.

9. Chapters should send applications of other interested candidates. The FCCFA executive will consider these applications in the case of additional spaces becoming available.

10. The remaining two delegate positions (and any vacant spaces from chapters not nominating a delegate) will be allocated according to current tour guidelines, attempting to select each from a different chapter.

11. None of the 2 additional delegates shall have been a delegate more than three times, unless no suitable other candidates are available
