Board of Directors

There are two categories of directors: regional directors and At-Large directors. CICan’s board has 6 Regional Directors representing the 6 regions in Canada: British-Columbia and the Yukon, Alberta and the Northwest Territories, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Nunavut, Ontario, Quebec, and the Atlantic region. The board is also composed of two types of At-Large directors: At-Large directors from heads of member institutions and public At-Large Directors. The At-Large Directors are appointed by the Class B member, which is the chair of the board. They are appointed on recommendation of the board of directors. Since the At-Large Directors are appointed by the Chair of the Board on recommendation of the board, members are not required to vote to elect them. It is worth noting that members are still required to vote for Regional Directors when such positions are opened on the board.

According to Colleges and Institutes Canada’s By-Laws, the Board of Directors has responsibility to provide leadership to the Association for all of its programs, facilities, and resources. Members of the Board have a responsibility to ensure that the views of their region are made known, while recognizing that as a member of a national Board they must vote according to the best interests of Canadian post-secondary education.
