Dutch term or phrase: Coll. Arb h.t. ab Actis//Coll. Arb. h.t. Praeses
Morning everyone,

I don't normally tackle certificates and the like so haven't come across this before.

These appears to be the titles of two signatories to a medical degree issued by a Dutch university - bottom of certificate above the respective signatures.

Has anyone got better experience in this field?

Thanks for your help in advance

Present Secretary of the Arbitration Council/Present Chair of the Arbitration Council


Explanation:
h.t. = hoc tempore = currently, presently
ab Actis (= abactis) = secretary
praeses = chair, chairman
The three translations above are certain, but "present", as in the full translation given, may be capable of improvement.
Coll = (probably) Collegium = Council
Arb. = (something with arbitration, I would say, can't think of the Latin) = Arbitration
