There are three complementary workshops to be held in August 2018. You can attend one or all of the workshops. Bookings must be made as places are limited. Certificates of completion to these accredited courses will be given. There is no cost for workshops.
Workshop 1: In the Board Room: Responsibilities and Practice
This course will examine the separate roles of the board, directors and management, as well as the composition and structure of the board. Participants revise why the separation of management and control contributes to good corporate governance and therefore the long term viability of organisations.

Workshop 2: Introduction to Financial Information for Directors
Introduction to Financial Statements for Directors will provide a straightforward introduction to financial statements from the director’s perspective.

The session also examines the financial aspects of directors’ statutory duties.
