Board of Directors
In Ontario, the regulation of health care professionals is a partnership with the public. The operation of each regulatory College is overseen a Board of Directors ("the Board"). The Board of the College of Denturists of Ontario is composed of:
- Denturists elected by their peers (the registrants of the College); and
- public members appointed by the Lieutenant Governor in Council.
This governing Board is led by the Board Chair ("the Chair") who is elected by the Board from among the public members. The Board sets out the strategic and policy direction for the College and is charged with establishing this strategic and policy direction in the interest of the public.
The Board meets 3-4 times per year. Meetings are open to the public.
Much of the mandated work of the College is carried out by seven statutory committees. These Committees and their functions are mandated under the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991. Committee membership includes both Denturists and appointed public members.
