"We wish Mark the very best in all his future endeavors," said BISG board chair Tara Catogge of Quarto Publishing Group USA. "As a longtime board member and friend of BISG, Mark will be greatly missed."
"I am proud of what we accomplished during my tenure, including popular new training webinars and workshops, and a modernized, efficient, data-rich, mobile office structure designed to support BISG and its members' education and research needs into the next decade," Kuyper said.
Kuyper joined BISG as executive director June 15, 2015, after serving as president and CEO of the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association.
