The Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOIFI) conducted the sixth and the seventh meetings of the AAOIFI Education Board (AEB) on 26 May 2021 and 14 June 2021, respectively, through the online conferencing system.

The meetings were chaired by Dr. Mehmet Asutay, the chairman of the board. The board  ratified the shortlisted members of the curriculum review committee (CRC), the examinations review committee (ERC) and the translations review committee (TRC).

The selection of the members of the respective subcommittees of the AEB underwent a rigorous process in line with the best governance practices. In this regard, nominations were invited through an online application form and based on the weightages assigned to different criteria, a final score was tabulated for each nominee. The shortlisting, while considering the score, also took into consideration the need to diversify the membership of subcommittees on multiple fronts including the area of expertise, language proficiency, qualification, type of institution, and the geographical distribution.

On the occasion, Mr. Omar Mustafa Ansari, Secretary General said, “We thank and welcome the new members of the subcommittees, working with them, and benefitting from their exceptional talent in improving the quality of the capacity building offerings of AAOIFI.”
