RiskMetrics Group LogoNACD logo

The Terry College of Business and the National Association of Corporate Directors team up to offer you Directors' College. Directors' College examines the impact that regulatory changes have had, and continue to have, on legal, fiduciary, and ethical responsibilities and liabilities of board members. Seven years ago, before Sarbanes-Oxley was enacted, the Terry College and the National Association of Corporate Directors partnered to create this two-day, ISS-accredited program for board members and senior executives that explores best practices in corporate governance and provides practical insights into how to handle today's boardroom challenges.

Through case studies and interaction between faculty and other board members and executives, participants learn the fundamental roles and responsibilities of the board and its committees, methods for evaluating financial health and performance, and practical ways of implementing new regulatory requirements.

Available accreditation includes: CLE, CEU and CPE.

Boards composed of directors who have participated in this program will receive an upward adjustment to their Corporate Governance Quotient™ (CGQ) as determined by ISS.

This program is approved by the NACD Corporate Directors Insititute and provides credits for maintaining the Certificate of Director Education. For more information about how to obtain the certificate, visit the Corporate Directors Institute web site or call 202-775-0509.

Directors College 2009: June 10-11, 2009

"This is a first rank Directors' College, with an interactive program that assures directors learn about the latest developments in corporate governance and leave with practical advice on risk and liability avoidance. Best of all, the number of participants is deliberately kept small in order to encourage active participation and to increase opportunities to learn from fellow directors who may have personal experiences directly relevant to the problems being studied."
—The Honorable William B. Chandler, Chancellor, Delaware Chancery Court
