This course is for people who serve (or are considering serving) on a board as a director or board member. The focus of this course is to make sure you stay out of trouble by knowing your rights, obligations and duties as a board member.

Board Directors (or members) need to understand governance to do their job correctly.

This course covers the most important issues that come with serving on a board, whether corporate, non-profit or as a volunteer. In my 20+ years of speaking professionally on governance to a variety of boards, I continue to see examples of what not to do. With this course I want to give you the necessary information to avoid mistakes and not get in trouble. Important things like members’ legal responsibilities is not common knowledge to most. You may do something completely ordinary and not realize you are failing in your duty as a board member. For example, a ‘parking lot meeting.’

This course teaches you how to be a better board member and what it takes to stay out of trouble.
