Collegiate Recreational Sports Professional Registry Commission

The NIRSA Board of Directors endorsed the structure, qualifications, and responsibilities of the Collegiate Recreational Sports Professional Registry Commission (Commission) on December 1, 2009. The Professional Registry Work Team (PRWT) was charged with recruitment, review and slating of candidates for the inaugural Commission.

The Commission year is July 1 - June 30. Inaugural Commission members serve staggered terms, as noted below (e.g., 1, 2, or 3/year terms). Each Commission position continues as a three-year term following the initial term. The transition process from the PRWT to the Commission began in spring 2010.
