Associate Councillor

The associate councillor serves as the regional representative on the OPTN Membership and Professional Standards Committee, assists the regional councillor with regional activities, provides leadership to the region in the absence of the regional councillor, and participates in all regional meetings. Each region elects an associate councillor who will eventually succeed the regional councilor. (Source: OPTN Bylaws, Appendix M) (OPTN Glossary May 2021, OPTN Bylaws Definitions, December 2020)
