(c) Members shall be selected by the group or groups they represent subject to approval
by the director.

record, provided that the apprentice has completed a minimum of 6,000 hours of an apprenticeship
term or has entered the fourth year of the term.
Subd. 3. Programs. (a) A program operating under the supervision of a committee shall, in
its standards, include the procedures to be followed in the administration of the program which
in no case shall be inconsistent with the provisions of this chapter, and such rules as may be
promulgated by the department under the authority of this chapter.
(b) Every apprenticeship program operating under a committee shall, in its standards,
provide for a tie breaking procedure should the committee, by its voting, find itself unable to
reach a majority decision on any matter relative to the committee's supervision and operation
of the program.
(c) When a committee is not established by the director, the operation of the program shall be
according to the terms and conditions of the apprenticeship agreement as subscribed to by the
named contracting parties and approved by the director.
