As the Kiravian federal government is a fully presidential system, the Executive College is not independent of the Prime Executive (all of its members are appointed and dismissible by the PE), and only exercises a few reserve powers of its own (see below). This contrasts with the executive colleges (and analogous bodies) of many Kiravian states and territories, which exercise substantial power as collegial institutions and may also have some degree of independence from the Chief Executive/Governor. As such, nearly all cabinet votes are advisory in nature (so that the PE may gauge support for a measure among his administration) or relate to internal business. Practicality, convention, and custom underpin the importance and political role of the Executive College more than constitutional authority, and its manner of business has evolved under different administrations.

Three members of the College - the Prime Executive, Second Executive, and Reserve Executive - are elected. Eligibility for all three offices and the nomination/election process therefor is governed by Chapter II, Article I of the Constitution.
The offices of Secretary-General, Attorney-General, Chief State Executive, Chief Defence Executive, Chief Territorial Executive, and Chief Maritime Executive are also established by the Constitution (Chapter II, Article II). These officers are appointed by the Prime Executive, subject to confirmation by the Stanora.
Most of the other offices are established by Acts of the Stanora, appointed by the Prime Executive, subject to confirmation by the Stanora.
The Prime Executive may independently name additional officers to the College without confirmation by the Stanora and assign them official duties by Collegial Ordinance, but these officers cannot vote on Collegial business unless confirmed.
