Introduction
Course overview
Effective boards depend on effective secretariats. The board secretary ensures that meetings are properly convened, papers are timely and clear, decisions are accurately recorded, statutory obligations are met and directors receive the information and support they need to govern well.
This Board Secretary and Corporate Secretarial Practice training course provides a practical grounding in the role of the board or company secretary. Participants learn how to plan the board calendar, prepare agendas and board packs, support the chair, manage meetings and committees, write clear minutes and resolutions, maintain statutory registers and records, and support good governance practice.
The course also addresses confidentiality, conflicts of interest, director induction, board evaluation and the use of board portals and digital tools.
