A comprehensive system of corporate governance education for all key roles within an organisation has been created by the Baltic Institute of Corporate Governance (BICG).
In addition to the signature Board member and Chair education programs as well as the Program for corporate secretaries, a Course in good corporate governance and board work essentials as well as Continuous professional development program for former graduates have recently been introduced.
“The two new programs have been offered as pilot projects last year. But after receiving a lot of interest and excellent feedback, they have now become fully integrated into the BICG education system – with the content aligned according to the needs of specific audiences,” says Rytis Ambrazevičius, President of the BICG.
Course in good corporate governance and board work essentials is designed for those not yet familiar with the corporate governance fundamentals (owners, board members, top managers of smaller companies or start-ups, middle managers in large companies with advanced corporate governance systems, etc.) and can also serve as the first step before considering Board member education.
Board member education is at the core of the system, providing owners, board members and top managers with extensive knowledge of their respective roles, etc.
Continuous professional development program is offered to those who have graduated from the Board member education five or more years ago, to bridge the differences in the knowledge about the best corporate governance practices as they were then and as they are now.
Chair education is the last step, offering advanced knowledge for those who lead company boards, while Program for corporate secretaries is considered complementary for all levels of education, providing insight into how a professional corporate secretary can support all corporate governance systems within an organization.
Additionally, those interested in learning more about the board practices across Europe, can also enter the education program by the European Confederation of Directors’ Associations (ecoDa), where the BICG is a member.
“The best results of running a successful company or another organisation are achieved when good corporate governance principles are understood and implemented at all levels within it. The integrated education system by the BICG can support full-scale development of corporate governance professionals in the Baltics, at any level,” says Rytis Ambrazevičius.
