About the Governing Body
The Further and Higher Education Act 1992 requires each college in the Further Education sector to have a governing body. The governing body of Swansea College is known as the Corporation Board. It comprises 18 governors with a wide range of expertise and experience who wish to contribute to the local community.
The Corporation Board is accountable for the financial solvency of the college, its sound management and the quality of the service that it provides. The Board is also accountable for the proper use of the public funds entrusted to it.
