Issue Coordinators are the CUPA Forum Board's point people for issues that require significant, focused effort. They are appointed by the Chair of the CUPA Forum Board, with input from the Board as a whole. Each Technical Adivisory Group (TAG) has an assigned Issue Coordinator, but Issue Coordinators can be assigned to subjects for which there is no TAG.
