Why this course

Bridge the gap between administration and governance.

Administrative professionals play a critical role in effective corporate governance. The board pack, the agenda, the minutes and the confidential record often pass through the PA, secretary or office administrator first.

This masterclass gives you a clear understanding of governance principles, compliance, ethics and professional board support, so you can support executives, boards and committees with confidence and position yourself for governance-related roles.
