   *Gov. Reynolds announces launch of new state boards and commissions system IAppoint * DES MOINES— Governor Kim Reynolds announced the launch of IAppoint [ [link removed] ], a modernized system that manages applications to Iowa’s various state boards and commissions. IAppoint replaces Talent Bank which originally launched in 2018.   The Office of the Governor appoints qualified individuals each year, on a rolling basis, to more than 180 boards and commissions covering all areas of state government, including education, healthcare, public safety, and more. State boards and commissions are responsible for advising Governor Reynolds, Lt. Governor Chris Cournoyer, the Iowa State Legislature, and state agencies.   Iowa law requires boards and commissions reflect political affiliation, geography, and a wide range of backgrounds in order to represent every perspective. Applicants’ information is kept on file as part of public record making them eligible for current and future opportunities to serve fellow Iowans.  “In order to maximize the taxpayer dollar, it is incumbent on government to consistently review and improve our systems,” Governor Reynolds said. “IAppoint is another way to enhance our quality of service and inform Iowans about the essential civic duty of serving on one of our many state boards and commissions to play an active role in helping shape the state we call home.”  *IAppoint* was developed by the Office of the Governor in partnership with the Department of Management and DOM DoIT (Department of Information Technology), as well as Webspec, a leading web design and development agency in Des Moines. The overhauled system showcases advanced search terms, appointment notification capabilities, and current board membership status among other high-end features.     # # #
