The Department is governed by a seven-member board of directors appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the State Senate.
There is one board member for each of Oklahoma's five U.S. House districts, and two members are appointed "at large." (Because of confirmation timing, members appointed by the Governor often attend meetings as guests prior to their Senate confirmation.)
The ODL director serves as secretary and as an ex officio member of the board.
