All four were elected as the Board Directors by the Vote Authorized Representatives (VAR) members through online voting for a four-year term. 

Aydogan Ozcan and Mehmet Toner were already existing Board members whose terms expired and they agreed to re-run for the election. Candan Tamerler has served TASSA as Vice President over the last four years. Ercan Alp was the co-chair of the successful Chicago TASSA conference.
