At the apex of every governance structure is a Board or Council with oversight responsibilities. The requirement for a College to have a Board or Council is not a wish or an option; it is, indeed, mandatory.

The Board’s role can generally be categorized into three: law making, under which the Board enacts statutes to govern the operations of the College; administrative, through which the Board determines the policies and directions of the College, ensure efficient management and also see to it that the resources of the College are used for the purposes intended. The third function of the board is one of oversight, which is about ensuring accountability through such activities as the preparation of accounts, audit and annual reports as well as graduation.
