Section Session Allocation Formula

Council has approved the following formula for allocating annual meeting sessions to sections:

 

 

Number of Members in a Section	Number of Sessions Earned
Less than 300	1
300-399	2
400-599	3
600-799	4
800-999	5
1000+	6

 

 

This formula is based on the number of members at the end of the membership year (i.e., September 30th each year). Sections meeting on the last day also earn 1 bonus session in addition to the numbers above.
