There are two vacancies for registrant members on the NSOTR Board of Directors. We invite all interested registrants to apply to join the Board!
The NSOTR Board is responsible for strategic governance the Regulator. The Board governs and regulates in the public interest, not the interest of the profession. It is made up of volunteers: four licensed occupational therapists and three public members who are appointed by government.
How to Apply:
All NSOTR registrants in good standing* may apply to be a director of the NSOTR Board by completing a Board Appointment Application Form and submitting it to registrar@nsotr.ca. This form helps the Appointments Committee understand the competencies, qualities, knowledge, and perspectives a candidate can offer the Board. The application deadline is September 8, 2025.
NSOTR uses an intentional approach to Board selection. A diverse Board with a balance of skills, competencies, and perspectives better serves the public interest. Using a Board Composition Matrix, the Committee will recommend eligible candidates to the Board who best support our goal of a diverse and balanced Board composition. As a result, the competencies, skills, and perspectives the Committee prioritizes in candidates may change over time with the composition of the Board.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Kevin Wong at registrar@nsotr.ca.
*for the definition of ”good standing” see section 1.2 of the NSOTR Bylaws
