Governance

Four key groups work together to oversee and govern Primary ITO – the Board, Director Selection Panel, Stakeholder Council and Industry Partnership Groups (IPGs).

Our Board

The Director Selection Panel appoints six Stakeholder Directors to our Board. These Directors can then appoint two further Appointed Directors if required. Directors are on the board for a rotating basis of three years. 

Director Selection Panel

The Director Selection Panel is made up of three appointed members of the Stakeholder Council, plus two independents. The Panel makes recommendations to the Council for the six Board Directors appointed on a three-year rotational basis.

Stakeholder Council

One representative from each of the 14 Industry Partnership Groups (IPGs) make up the Stakeholder Council. The Council meets with the Board at least twice a year to present each group’s needs and viewpoints on industry training.

Industry Partnership Groups (IPGs)

The IPGs are the voice of the primary industry. They are grass roots participants committed to the growth of their sector and organisations. IPGs directly inform training requirements in specific areas, so we can deliver the most relevant and stimulating programmes. Each of the 14 IPGs appoints a Chairperson and representative to the Stakeholder Council.
