The composition of the Council must be appropriate to the duties and responsibilities The Charles Darwin University Council is based on a board-of-trustees model, with members appointed or elected acting solely in the interests of the University and not as delegates or representatives of a particular constituency. The structure, composition and size of Council are determined by the Charles Darwin University Act. Direction in the Act ensures Council is able to adequately discharge its responsibilities and duties via the following membership: the Chancellor (appointed by the Council) the Vice-Chancellor the Chair of Academic Board eight members appointed by the Administrator of the Northern Territory, representing a broad range of community interests and including fi nancial and commercial expertise one person elected by and from the full-time Higher Education academic staff of the University one person elected by and from the full-time Vocational and Technical Education academic staff of the University one person elected by and from the undergraduate students of the University one person elected by and from the postgraduate students of the University. An education program must be provided for new Council members Charles Darwin University has a professional development program for Council, with the following objectives: to ensure new members of Council are provided with an induction program, and appropriate core documentation and information (induction) to ensure members are informed about their duties generally, which also includes the legislative and operational context of the University (provision of requisite background information) to assist members of Council to develop and maintain a skill set that fi ts the governance and strategic needs of the University (improvement in planning and governance) to enhance organisational performance by improving the (minimum) skill set of all members, as well as instilling and enhancing specialist skills in those members who will lead committees and/or Council activities. Activities include a formal induction program, opportunities to attend various conferences and events, and local functions planned around the rotation of Council meetings between the various Charles Darwin University campuses. The University must have a written code of ethics The Charles Darwin University has a written code of ethics based upon four ethical principles: Integrity Earning and sustaining public trust by being honest, open and transparent in all dealings and by acting in the best interest of communities served by the University Respect treating colleagues, students, stakeholders and the broader community with respect and courtesy, and having regard for the dignity and needs of the people with whom staff members interact Accountability taking personal and professional responsibility for actions, and achieving results through the best use of University fi nancial and physical resources and by working effectively with people Service Focus demonstrating a spirit of service by providing a relevant and timely service to clients, colleagues, students, stakeholders and the broader community, and by valuing the views of these groups and using them to improve service quality. Particular expectations of the behaviour of Council members are set out in the CDU Council Governance Charter.
