All registrants have been issued a notice from the College announcing that the election for the 2020-2021 Board of Directors (Council) will be held on November 2, 2020. This date was established following postponement of the original election date earlier this year due to the state of emergency declared by the provincial government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As a result of changes to the College’s governance framework and election procedure adopted in the College’s By-Law No. 6, a new process will be in place for this year’s elections, including increased screening of applications and the elimination of electoral districts.
Registrants are asked to carefully consider the responsibilities, skills, and time commitment required to effectively fulfill a Director role before submitting their application. Prospective candidates are also required to have read the 2020 Director Profile, College By-Law No. 6, and the Board of Directors Policy Booklet prior to submitting their application via the OCP Recruitment Website.
Once an application has been submitted, candidates will be screened according to the process outlined in the Director Profile. The deadline for submitting an application is August 14, 2020 at 5pm.
