committees
Our Board of Directors and Executive Director work in partnership with a team of volunteer committees to help govern and manage our organization.
Committee members are a selection of representatives from member organizations as well as non-members. We strive to find the best possible people to sit on our committees. If you are interested in volunteering your time, please apply in writing outlining your experience and how you would like to contribute to HeliCat Canada and our membership. Expressions of interest can be emailed to info@helicat.org.
Committees listed below are standing committees of HeliCat Canada. Ad Hoc committees are struck as required, typically for special projects and specific issues with a defined start and finish. We also facilitate communication through Working Groups that help advise on certain issues from time to time.
