They are selected at the Annual Conference, and serve for two years, after which their term can be renewed. The chairman, vice chairmen, presidents, executive vice president and executive directors are selected through an election among JEITA directors at the Board of Directors meeting. The term of the chairman is one year.

	Boards and Committees

	In order for JEITA to handle both internal and external issues in industry-related fields, the Policy and Strategy Board, five sector-specific boards, five issue-specific committees, one special committee and the Kansai Branch Steering Board have been organized under the Board of Directors. Members may participate in the boards and committees by their own choice.
