Structure of CKI
What is the structure of Circle K International?
There are three levels of CKI: club, district, and international.
The Club Level
The club is the first and most important level of CKI. The club level is where the mission of CKI is realized. Clubs are the heart of CKI's service. The next levels exist to provide consultation and develop program materials that will assist and support the club in attaining their service and leadership development objectives.

The District Level
As we move up in the structure, CKI is divided into districts that are either a single state, a combination of states, provinces, and/or countries. They are regionally identified. The main function of the district is to develop and maintain clubs within the specified region. The chief spokesperson and leader of the district is the governor. Other district officers include the secretary, treasurer, and lieutenant governors. |
Sub-level of the District: The Division Level
The districts are further broken down into divisions that are managed by lieutenant governors. California State University of Long Beach is part of CNH District and Metro Division. |
The International Level
The final level of Circle K is the International level. The International Board of Trustees is composed of the president, the vice-president, and seven representatives. These students administer the organization at the international level. They identify the critical issues facing the organization and evaluate strategies to help the organization support its mission. The international board sets the policies for CKI, develops service initiative programs, advises, and educates the districts.
The international board provides consultation to each district via the governor to assist him/her in managing the organization at the district level. The international representative serves as a liaison between the district and International levels. Annually, the council of governors meets with the International Board of Trustees to discuss the state of the organization.
