MISSED THE WEBINAR? On January 20, 2022, CREA hosted a virtual information session for individuals interested in learning more about becoming a CREA Committee member for the 2022-23 term. Attendees had the chance to learn more from current committee members and had an opportunity to ask questions. Watch now!

We’re inviting any and all interested REALTOR® members and board or association staff to submit an application online, letting us know why they would be a great fit for the committee(s) of their choice. Applications must be submitted by February 17, 2022.

The application process is open to all CREA members in good standing. You may submit statements of interest for up to two board committees and two operational committees.

Why should I serve on a committee?

CREA committee members get to put their unique perspectives, expertise, and talents to good use by contributing to the work of our national association on behalf of REALTORS®. You’ll gain valuable experience that will come in handy if you choose to seek further leadership roles in the future. You’ll also make invaluable industry contacts and true friends from across the country.

We understand the importance of bringing diverse backgrounds and experiences to our committees. We want the composition of our committees (and our Board of Directors) to reflect the wonderful diversity of our membership. That’s why we’re putting out a call to all REALTORS®.
