New course launching in spring – Diploma in Director Skills and Duties
The Diploma Centre is delighted to launch the Diploma in Director Skills and Duties - a new course for solicitors and professionals seeking an interesting and rewarding challenge, and aiming to take up board positions.
Learning outcomes
Over five intensive modules, students will gain a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the law and skills needed to thrive as a non-executive director or charitable trustee.
The Diploma in Director Skills and Duties provides an overview of these rewarding roles as well as practical guidance on the essential elements of corporate governance including fiduciary duties, understanding and investigating financial and other internal reports, and the due diligence that should be carried out prior to accepting a role. Students will gain a unique insight into board meetings and effective board behaviour through participation in an innovative boardroom simulation module. In addition, a crisis management module will help participants to prepare, respond and recover in the face of urgent organisational issues.
Make a booking
This course is suitable for solicitors and barristers seeking an additional challenge in their careers and other suitably qualified professionals who are responding to a request to serve on a board.
