Seven local delegates have successfully completed
the first stage of the Institute of Directors Company
Direction Programme which is offered at the International
Business School in collaboration with the University
of Salford.
All participants are now progressing
on to the next stage of the programme and will take
final examinations
for the Diploma in Company Direction later on in April.
The programme incorporates seven
individual courses covering essential subject areas
for aspiring and practicing
directors such as 'finance for non-financial directors' and 'strategic
business direction'.
Alison Kennedy director of the
IOD Company Direction Programme from the University
of Salford presented
participants with their Certificates and wished them
success in their exams which can contribute to gaining
the qualification of Chartered Director (C Dir) which
Alison describes as 'a qualification that demonstrates
to clients and customers that their organisation is
professional and is run with effective business leadership
and sound corporate governance'.
A second Company Direction Programme
is due to commence on the Island later in the year. Anyone
interested in finding out more is welcome to attend
an Evening
Preview at the International Business School starting
at 6pm on Tuesday 6th of May. Alternatively
