CDTBC COMMITTEES

Much of the business of the College is conducted by various committees struck by the Board.  In some instances the Board delegates its authority to a specific committee and in others the Board receives recommendations from a particular committee.

Committee memberships are considered on an annual basis.  The Registrar is an ex-officio member of every committee of the Board.

Registrants are welcome to forward their written comments to a Board or Committee member by addressing their concerns to that member c/o the College office.  All material received related to committee matters is forwarded to the attention of the appropriate committee.
