Medical Laboratory Assistant Program
Advisory Committee

TRU advisory committees are composed of between five and twelve members appointed by the Provost and V.P. Academic in consultation with the faculty dean and department chairperson. Nominations for appointment may be submitted by members of the Board of Governors, current Advisory Committee members or TRU or TRU-OL staff. Appointees may be drawn from such categories as employers and potential employers of program graduates; persons working in program-related occupations or professions; professional; trade and business organization representatives; students; and staff from other post secondary institutions.

The role of the Medical Laboratory Assistant program advisory committee includes advising TRU and TRU-OL on the need for revisions to the program content and on current and projected demand for program graduates. The committee also advises the department on the degree to which the program fulfills the needs of employers and assists in program promotion and the development of links with business, industry and other institutions.
