Governing Body of RCDC

The governing body of Raffles College of Design and Commerce (RCDC) is the Raffles College Council, the membership of which represents a spectrum of expertise in the fields of education, design, business and finance.

The main responsibility of the Council is to set strategic directions and to establish, review and implement policies to govern and carry out the mission of RCDC. In summary, this mission is to be a private, independent institution with a clear and uncompromising commitment to the pursuit of excellent and innovative education and training in design, commerce and allied fields.

The Council maintains responsibility for academic quality and policy. The Council operates independently from the ownership of the organisation in order to ensure academic integrity. The Council is advised by the Academic Board and other committees.
