OC Business Section
What does OCBS do?
We encourage OCs working in similar professions or occupations to network, support each other and exchange ideas.
History
Early in 1919, the ‘professional and occupations’ section was formed to assist OCs returning from the Great War. Through the efforts of so many OCs, this support has continued through the decades, with a focus on providing guidance and advice.
