The ADC is an immersive three-and-a-half-day course designed to future proof directors with the skills and insights to stay ahead and lead with purpose at the board table.
Over three-and-a-half days, you’ll delve into cutting edge governance thought leadership with a focus on real-world issues and challenges that reflect the complexities of modern directorship.
Expert facilitators and engaging guest directors will guide you through topics central to every director’s role including leadership, succession, future governance, diversity, and climate transition - all while strengthening your network with others at the same stage of their governance journey. Our Advanced Directors' Course (ADC) curriculum uses a 360-degree approach and each day focusses on a different facet of being a director - you, your board and practical governance.
This is a fully immersive course, which allows for greater connection with your cohort and the opportunity to learn from each other’s experience. For more information on what you would learn each day view our example programme here.
To hear first-hand from ADC alumni listen to our Board Matters podcast series. In this series leading directors in New Zealand share their unique perspectives on governance and learnings from the course.
Our facilitators have been carefully selected for their governance experience, diverse subject matter expertise, and their ability to enliven content by sharing their own experiences.
The course is delivered over three-and-a-half days in a workshop style setting, which encourages participant engagement to drive robust discussions, the sharing of different perspectives and learning outcomes.
You will receive comprehensive pre and post course materials and supplementary reading to support your learning. These materials will be delivered to you through our online learning portal.
