Who selects the chair of the GPSC each year?

The chair of the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (GPSC) is selected by the commission members themselves each year. This structure allows the commission members to choose a leader from among themselves, ensuring that the person in the role of chair is familiar with the commission's objectives and functioning. This process promotes a sense of internal governance and collaboration among the members, reflecting their collective expertise and priorities.

In this context, the roles of the governor, the public, and the state legislature do not involve direct participation in the selection of the GPSC chair, as that decision-making is reserved specifically for the members of the commission. This arrangement helps maintain a focus on professional standards and educational governance without external influences.
