Corporate governance in the spotlight - 2008
BSI Learning in partnership with Our Community in Australia has developed a nationally recognised qualification for board members and company directors.
The program enables professional leaders from all business sectors, including listed and unlisted companies, all levels of government, and not-for-profit organisations, to increase their knowledge in effective corporate governance.
Andrew Wright, the developer and one of the lead national facilitators at BSI Learning, said the program offered a flexible and convenient blended learning approach for participants to access essential professional development in the growing practice areas of the role and structure of corporate governance. A combination of workshops, workbooks and in-practice assessment combines to ensure that attendees put into practice what is delivered.
"Business legislation and regulation is becoming more complex so it's crucial for managers and directors to understand practical aspects of corporate governance in order to better identify, understand and control their business risk," he said. "This initiative of the Australian Institute of Community Practice and Governance specially designed the program to help them do that.
"Participants can interact with their course instructor and access study materials and discuss their specific issues at any time, from anywhere in the world."
Upon completing the program, participants receive a Certificate IV in Business (Governance).
