Constitution & Bylaws

Constitution & Bylaws

The WTA constitution outlines the fundamental rules and principles which direct the operation of the union, while the bylaws present specific rules, guidelines and procedures.

The constitution clarifies the WTA’s purpose – to promote and advance the cause of education, foster active participation by members of the Association and to promote the welfare of the members – and provides the foundation to building an effective group.

The bylaws provide further explanation of the constitution and can be more easily adapted as the needs of the WTA change. However, the bylaws should not contradict the provisions in the constitution.
