The closing date for the submission of nominations for five members of the Convocation to the Excom of the Convocation was 18 May 2020 at 16:30. A total of six nominations were received and scrutinised, after which two nominations were declared invalid due to substantial non-conformance with the requirements laid down. The remaining four candidates are thus elected to the Excom and will serve for a period not exceeding five years.

1. Dr Pieter Bettings
2. Ms Ntombi Nhlapo

A meeting of the Excom of the Convocation will be scheduled to discuss the one remaining vacancy in the Excom.
