Overview and Purpose
The Self-paced Director Development Program is a valuable and practical governance resource, designed to be completed over time and at your own pace. It is ideal for use by both Directors and senior staff within your organisation. Ideal for use by busy professionals, the program can be done anywhere, anytime.
The purpose of this Program is to support new and existing Directors who wish to commit to their own professional development in the chosen field of governance.
The Program is intended to:
- support the improvement of good governance practices;
- provide Directors with practical insights into the role, responsibilities and requirements placed on them to meet their governance responsibilities;
- highlight professional development areas for follow up;
- offer a workable framework to support Directors managing both their own and the Board's continuous professional improvement; and
- provide reference to further information sources for follow-up purposes.
The Program includes an opportunity for users to firstly assess the extent of their governance practices knowledge; secondly, identify areas that require further training and professional development; and thirdly, design specific actions to support their own governance development.
