Your College and You
Thank you for your interest in receiving breaking news and professional information from the College.
In this Issue:
The Latest News on Your College
Two months ago the provincial government introduced Bill 78 to increase the size of the College Council and introduce new eligibility requirements for Council members.
Since then the government and the College have been working out the details of the new governance structure for the teaching profession.
Today, the College held an information session for interested organizations, sharing for the first time a detailed report on changes to the Council.
Some of this information is so new we weren't able to include it in the June issue of Professionally Speaking that you will receive in the next few days.
See The Latest News on College Governance to find out what education organizations heard today.
