One other thing, while not set in stone we strongly encourage and expect the Asst Treasurer to run for Treasurer the next year. This way they have an idea of what the job entails and aren't completely overwhelmed when they take over the office. As the year goes by the Treasurer trains the Asst and gives her more and more responsibility. It's been very beneficial.
Hope some of this helps.

My chapter took that a step further. There is no treasurer election. The Assistant Treasurer is simply confirmed by a closed ballot -- it takes 3/4 to knock him out of the running for treasurer. The treasurer is the last person that should be doing on-the-job training. Also, you tend to get a little higher quality Assistant Treasurer this way.
