Northern Lights College | Student Governance

What is student governance?

Each year, we seek student representatives to serve on NLC’s Education Council and Board of Governors, and to lead the Northern Lights College Students’ Associations’ Student Councils. Student participation is key to how we receive feedback on programming and services. In addition to helping shape the college you attend, participating in the councils or on the board provides valuable insight into how to develop policy, run meetings, and lead organizations. Student representatives are elected positions. Elections are held in September or October following a nomination period.

More information about all three student governance opportunities can be found here.
