Some outcomes may have the possibility of being reviewed. For example, if a complaint is dismissed by the Complaints Director, the complainant can ask for it to be reviewed by the Complaints Review Committee. If you have concerns about the outcome of a complaint, specifically how a complaint was managed or dealt with by the College, you may contact the Alberta Ombudsman.
