# Open Call for Committee Applicants

As part of governance modernization, by April 1, 2024, COTO will reduce the overlap in membership between the Board and all our statutory committees.

This change creates a great opportunity for more occupational therapists to get involved with the College and the regulation of your profession. We have new openings across our committees.

Become a Professional Committee Appointee

Occupational therapists can get involved with governance and health regulation at the College by becoming a Professional Committee Appointee.

Professional Committee Appointees are registered occupational therapists who serve on our committees and are not a member of the Board.

This is a great opportunity if you are an engaged professional who wants to:

get involved and learn more about the work of the College

make valuable contributions to the profession

help regulate occupational therapy in Ontario

The College is seeking applications from individuals with a broad range of skills, perspectives and expertise as outlined in the College’s Committee Competency Framework.

Commitments and Compensation

All appointments are for a three-year period commencing in April 2024.

Meetings are generally 1/2 day and held virtually during business hours.

Professional appointees are compensated for meetings and preparation time.
