The College is run by a Council, similar to a board of directors. Council sets the College’s strategic and policy direction and makes decisions that protect and promote the public interest.
This July, kinesiologists in the following districts will participate in elections to Council:
- District 1 – Northern (one member spot)
- District 4 – Central (one member spot)
- District 5 – Central West (one member spot)
- District 7 – Province-wide (one academic spot)
Your district is determined by where you work. If you are not working, your electoral district is determined by where you live. View the electoral districts.
The College will be seeking nominations from kinesiologists eligible to run for Council in May. View the eligibility criteria.
You should also assess yourself against the Council and Committee Competency Profile that will be used to determine eligibility and suitability of kinesiologists wanting to stand for election to Council. In addition, candidates must complete an online Council Orientation Module, which is one of the requirements to run in the election. It should take you approximately one hour to complete. At the end of the module, you’ll be asked to submit a form to notify the College that you’ve completed it.
If you work or live in one of these districts, check your inbox in May for more information and consider running! This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to public protection and the future of the profession.
