Testimonials
Thoroughly enjoyed the course and the content. It will enable me to tackle governance issues more confidently. Course leaders were fantastic!
Both speakers were helpful in assisting me in my role within the MAT. It was useful to network with other governance professionals.
Good breadth of topics given the time available. I liked the balance between the different types of activities and the opportunity to share experiences.
