The proposed merger of the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners and Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards was approved by NBCE delegates and FCLB members at their respective annual meetings, held jointly in Atlanta, Ga., this year. Per the new bylaws, the new entity takes the NBCE name, with FCLB continuing as a department within NBCE. The federation will continue to enjoy Board of Directors representation on what will be a single, expanded board.

The Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE) is pleased to announce the appointment of Tom Benberg, EdD, as the council's president / chief executive officer. The appointment comes after a comprehensive search by the CCE Presidential Search Committee, a committee comprised of a cross-section of leadership stakeholders and interested parties within the chiropractic profession.
Benberg joins the CCE after serving as senior vice president / chief of staff for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACS) in Duluth, Ga. With an extremely strong accreditation background and widespread respect in the accreditation community, Benberg's 17 years' experience with SACS, helping institutions understand the standards, demonstrate compliance with the standards, and communicate their case effectively, will be a significant asset to the CCE's charge.
"The CCE Executive Committee, Councilors and Staff welcome the opportunity to benefit from Benberg's extensive knowledge of accreditation and his strengths in stakeholder communication, training and education at this time in our organizational history," commented CCE Council Chair, Craig Little, DC.
