Guidelines
for JCI Senatorship Award and Processing Fee
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A JCI
Senatorship is the highest honor that can be bestowed on a
member or past member of our organization, and confers
“lifetime membership” in Junior chamber International
(JCI). It is a unique way to pay tribute to an individual
for his/her dedication and outstanding service on a local,
national or international level. However, we noticed that
the proper protocol in applying said award is not being
followed. In our communications with JCI, we have learned
that there are those who filed their application form
directly to them without passing our National Secretariat or
the National Senate Affairs Chairman for appropriate
screening and validation.
In this
light, may we therefore give you the qualifications on how
to become a JCI Senator as required.. This prestigious award
is conferred to exemplar-JCI Members who have complied with
the following basic minimum requirements as stipulated in
our Policy Manual (Pol. 3.6 Sec. 4). as follows;
a)
The nominee must have been a member in good standing
for at least three (3) consecutive years. In case of a
nominee who is a past member, he need not be a member in
good standing at the time he is being considered for the
award;
b)
He must have attended an International Junior Chamber
Conference (Multi-Nation or World Congress) and two (2)
National Conventions. However, the JCI Senate Group, in very
meritorious cases, may dispense with the requirements of
attending an International Junior Chamber Conference if, in
their findings, the nominee does not have the financial
means. In this event, the nominee should have attended at
least five (5) Regular National Conventions;
c)
He must have either been a National Chairman,
Director of the chapter, or Chairman of a successful and
outstanding project that advanced the purposes of the
movement;
d)
The nomination form shall be filled up by the
nominator who must be a JCI Senator, or chapter officer or
director and certified by the Chapter Secretary;
e)
He must have been a recipient of a Chapter or Annual
Presidential Award or any JCP or JCI Award; and,
f)
All the above must be complied with as minimum
requirements before any member of the chapter may be
considered for Senatorship as recognition for very
outstanding services to the Junior Chamber movement.
Basing on
the above mentioned guidelines, the National Screening
Committee headed by the Imm. Past National President shall
consider the following pre-screening qualifications;
1.
That the
awardee / applicant for senatorship must be from a LOM/chapter
in good standing of the JCI Philippines
2.
Must be an
active member in good standing for three (3) consecutive
years.
3.
Must be an
elected LOM Board of Director / President.
4.
A LOM Board
Resolution endorsing his award/application for senatorship
stating his achievements and accomplishments in the chapter
or other valuable contributions to the LOM program and
activities and the application should be duly signed by the
concerned NVP/NEVP.
5.
At least
attended 5 Area Conferences and/or National Conventions or
three (3) JCI ASPAC or World Congresses.
Having
complied with the above-mentioned minimum requirements the
nominee shall further be graded on his overall performance
according to the point system as stipulated in our JCIP
Policy Manual and JCI e.g.
A copy of the said application should be forwarded to the
Office of the NSG for final verification after which the
National President signs the same before it will be
forwarded to JCI copy furnished Philippine Jaycee Senate
Office. Kindly take note per arrangement with JCI they will
not entertain applications filed directly to them.
In view
thereof upon validation of the application, a mailing /
processing fee in the amount of P400.00 payable to JCIP
shall be charged and none payment of said fee means the
application will not also be entertained. This is aside the
Senatorship fee in the amount of US $300 payable to JCI thru
credit card or demand draft by the applicant. The National
Secretariat shall then be responsible in distributing the
JCI Senatorship to the LOM or the JCI Senator concerned to
be handed by a National Officer, in an appropriate occasion.
For your appropriate information and guidance! Thank you.
