With regard to the day-to-day governance at the Campus, the first level is conducted by the Open Campus Leadership Team (OCLT), formerly known as the Open Campus Management Committee (OCMC). The OCLT is composed of Campus leaders who assist the Principal in decision-making for the Open Campus. Across The UWI, the Campuses form committees as may be required to assist the Principal in decision-making in matters related to particular areas of governance. The Open Campus formed the Open Campus Leadership Team which serves this purpose. The OCLT is chaired by the Campus Principal and comprises the Deputy Principal, Directors of Open Campus Country Sites (OCCS), Consortium for Social Development and Research (CSDR), Academic Programming and Delivery (APAD) Division, and Human Resources, the Marketing and Communications Manager, the Campus Librarian, the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), the Chief Information Officer (CIO), the Campus Registrar (CR) and the Senior Planning and Development Officer (PDO). Papers from the OCLT, related to Campus policy, are taken to the relevant Campus Committees for approval, noting or action as appropriate. The Leadership Team expanded its membership to better manage the operations of the Campus and provide guidance. The terms of reference are shown below:
1. lead the Open Campus during transformational change;
2. set the strategic direction of the Open Campus;
