Board Skills Matrix
The following defines the PMSA’s Board Skills Matrix which outlines the capabilities and experience that the PMSA Board requires and the number of Board members required with specific skills area experience. The Board Skills Matrix is reviewed annually to ensure the Board has a balance of capabilities and experience.
A Board member is defined as an expert when they have significant experience and / or qualifications in the defined skills area. Many Board members have a working knowledge in several defined skills areas, but are not considered experts. They support those expert Board members.
