Finding the right training course(s) or programme(s) for non-executive directors

August 3, 2015

How do I find the right training courses as a non-executive director?

There are a myriad of training courses dedicated to non-executive directors. To select the right course for you, consider:

learning objectives: What are you trying to achieve?
delivery: How do you want the learnings to be delivered: self-paced, online interactive, in-person, a combination of delivery types?
budget: What is your budget?
qualification: Will you gain a professional qualification?
accreditation: Is the course accredited? Is it accredited by an independent third-party or is the course self-accredited?
credibility of the institution delivering the course: Is the institution delivering the course independent and reputable? Is it an institute, a university or a professional body? Is it a commercial business? Does it operate as a not-for-profit or is it a commercial entity?

Once you are clear on your learning objectives and outcomes, your budget and learning styles, perform a thorough due diligence of the market and select the best option for you. If you are unclear, please connect with one of the NEDonBoard consultants: schedule a session. We are looking forward to connecting with you.

NEDonBoard is a professional membership body and offers value-for-money professional qualifications.
