Governance

​

The College of Midwives of Alberta (CMA) Council is the governing body responsible for setting policy and strategic direction for the College.

CMA Council is composed of individuals who govern the midwifery profession in the public interest, including five registered midwives of the College of Midwives of Alberta and five public members appointed by the Provincial Government in accordance with the Health Professions Act

Historically, the College has held an election each spring to fill the Council vacancies, with new Council members beginning their terms in May. In 2023, after a thorough evaluation of the election process, CMA Council announced the decision to move to an appointment process. 

In addition, CMA Council has committees to carry out the Council’s work in accordance with the Health Professions Act.
