EPIQ Committees

EPIQ Committees

There are two primary committees that run the EPIQ conference. First, the Quorum Outreach and Research Foundation is the lead non-profit that runs the venue. Logistics of the meeting and planning are controlled by the EPIQ Steering Committee, which collaborates with QORF and other partners. The EPIQ Curriculum Committee collaborates with a variety of partners on iterative improvements to the curriculum. For all committees, members are selected by popular vote of attendees of the conference, not by appointment. Voting members include: 1) registered attendees, 2) any committee members, 3) invited guests to the venue. There are no term limits and members may serve on both committees if the community votes for this outcome. Votes are conducted by secret paper ballot.
