DIRECTORS’ EDUCATION & ACCREDITATION PROGRAMME (DEAP)
The Directors’ Education and Accreditation Programme (DEAP) has been developed for directors of public and private companies, and not-for-profit or governmental organisations, and those considering becoming a director of such an organisation. It provides a forum for a frank, incisive and insightful discussion on the duties and responsibilities of a director, and the exploration of the requisite skills for, and the legal ramifications of, being a director.
DEAP is a sharply focused program, delivering critical content in a condensed period. It is designed for busy people who want to get what they need in a timely fashion.
Shortly after pre-registering for DEAP, participants will receive a link to register with the Chartered Governance Institute of Canada (CGIC) to access the course material for each of the modules for pre-course preparation. The workshop will be three days in duration and will be a mix of presentations, discussions, case studies and a knowledge assessment (quiz) for each module.
Upon successful completion, participants will be awarded the Accredited Director designation (Acc.Dir.) by the CGIC and be granted membership in CGIC’s Affiliate Group. As an Affiliate Group member, you will have a subscription to Corporate Governance Quarterly, CGI of Canada’s premier publication on good governance practice; access to special rates for seminars, workshops, and other continuing professional development opportunities; and the same benefits package extended to its other professional members.
The details of the course are as follows:
Programme: The course will be delivered in three modules, namely, i) Governance for Directors, ii) Strategy and Risk Management, and iii) Finance for Directors
Duration: 3 days, with 1 full day learning workshop for each module, consisting of presentations, discussions, and case studies.
Assessment: At the end of each day there will be a knowledge assessment exercise (completed in class). Participants must be successful on each module’s knowledge assessment to be granted the accreditation.
