About the TICT Board

The TICT Board has a college-based structure, with Directors appointed to a two-year term on behalf of industry sectors broadly representative of the Tasmanian tourism industry.

Half the board is up for re-election each year through an online vote of TICT Members. Not all accredited tourism operators are also members of the organisation. Nominees to the Board do not have to be TICT members, although their nomination must be supported by a financial TICT member.

The TICT Board meets up to 8 times a year, with meetings split between Hobart and regional centres. Meetings generally incorporate a briefing/presentation with a relevant Tasmanian Government or industry stakeholder (Tourism Tasmania, Tasmanian Parks & Wildlife Service, etc.).

Directors are elected in a Non-Executive capacity and volunteer their time for the betterment of the Tasmanian tourism industry. There is no remuneration or reimbursement for travel or time away from paid employment or business.
