Behind Boardroom Doors: Achieving Governance Excellence.
This course offers participants an insider’s perspective on corporate governance by evaluating what makes governance systems truly effective. As directors and executive teams face increasing pressure from stakeholders, the need to not only ensure compliance but also drive corporate performance has never been greater.
Through the exploration of three key board leadership roles, this course will help distinguish between good and great boards. Participants will learn how boards can go beyond oversight to actively contribute to value creation and long-term sustainability, achieving what we define as the "Governance Advantage."

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs.
