The Corporation of West Herts College serves the college community and welcomes anyone who wishes to observe part or all of its board meetings.


The Corporation is an active participant in the LSIS (Learning Skills Improvement Service) LSG (Leadership Skills for Governance) Observer Programme and also welcomes observers from other colleges who wish to see board practice in action. Members of the public or observers from other colleges who wish to attend all or part of a Corporation meeting are asked to contact the Director of Governance in the first instance.

Either in writing, by email or telephone:

Email: sheila.selwood@westherts.ac.uk
Tel: 01923 812608

The Director will co-ordinate meeting access and the circulation of papers relating to the items of meeting business that will be attended. The Corporation is committed to openness and accountability and will make every effort to meet access requests.

However, it is bound to refuse requests on the grounds of confidentiality in accordance, for example, with the requirements of parliamentary acts governing information such as Freedom of Information and Data Protection.
