Board Elections
CDTO Elections
Each year, an elections process is held from September to November for one of the three Districts on a rotating basis. The Elected Directors begin a three-year term starting at the first Board of Directors meeting in January.
A By-election may be held to fill vacancies on the Board. These Elected Directors term start at the end of the election period and continue until the Former Elected Director’s term would have ended.
You can get detailed information about this year’s elections from our Resources Webpage. If you need assistance, please contact registrar@cdto.ca or 416-438-5003.
Why YOU Should Become Elected
For the College to achieve its public interest mandate, it is important to ensure that the Board has diversity in knowledge, skills and experiences.
Registrants are asked to consider the responsibilities, skills, and time commitment required to effectively fulfill a Director role before submitting their application.
From Directors of the Board
I would encourage anyone in the profession to become involved.
The opportunity to serve as a member of council has given me a true understanding of the value of regulation. An elected member of council is privileged to share their experience and technical skills. It is an honour to network with other members of council and staff in the regulation of the profession to ensure protection of the public interest.
Getting involved with the board has been one of the best experiences of my life.
My fellow Council members are passionate people who care about the dental technology profession. Although we have a very dedicated group of Council members, term limits mean the College is always looking for driven people to make the board stronger.
